We've missed him! He's a former Cornell bestie whom we could not find for decades.
He was in the CIA.
In fact, he was one of the CIA’s most highly decorated operations officers who served in multiple field assignments for the U.S. government.
Here are some of his medals: he received the Distinguished Intelligence Medal, the Intelligence Commendation Medal, the Intelligence Medal of Merit, and the Distinguished Career Intelligence Medal.
He specialized in counterterrorism, in the Middle East and South Asia, including extensive time in Iraq and Afghanistan.
And now, with his wealth of knowledge and insights, he has become a trusted commentator, offering valuable perspectives on global affairs through various media platforms. Maybe you've also seen him talk about Havana Syndrome.
This is an episode unlike any other not just because he takes us inside the CIA, but because even with all that he has seen (and done), he is still the same great guy we knew (and pranked) at Cornell. You will love his story and love him equally.
There is so much to know and read about Marc.
