Yes, a sad story at times, but also many different stories about the women who lived them and tried to overcome the array of roadblocks that so many male CIA officers felt justified in placing before the female subordinates. Women can't recruit men unless--guess what?--sex is involved. BS! Many men have come to realize that women are their equals, but the CIA has a long way to go before women will seriously contend for equality in the Agency. Ms. Hillsberg tells you all about it in her book. If the subject interests you, read the book. Much there of value. And it's a good read to boot. Note. I was Janine Brookner's companion from 1969 on, and I believe in her now as I did then. Also, being a CIA case officer is a hard way to make a living.
this is worth read. I'm impressed with someone who made a difference. There are lessons to be learn. Finally some recognition for a job done well...

A very sad story. I'm especially glad that I didn't push harder for my daughter to join the Agency. She would have been a very good field agent.
