How do you quit the KGB without getting "eliminated"? Jack Barsky tells the real-life spy story of how he came to America as a Soviet sleeper agent for the KGB, but started enjoying his new life in America so much he dangerously chose to leave his old life behind.

Or did he??
I have Barsky’s book, it really is interesting
Watch out for people with umbrellas on sunny days.
Don’t tell them. Become a double agent.
Interesting that this shows up on FR. Recently this guy shows up at our church in Georgia. Tall, light complexion, European looking, quiet, almost shy. So I ask my wife if she knows who he is. She does some some checking and comes back with a name, Jack Barsky. And, she is told to check him out on YouTube.
We get home and discover who he is. Next I check out his book at the library. A fascinating read, not that hes a great author, but that he has an amazing story to tell.
Ive yet to meet him or engage him in a conversation. But I hope too...
As a side note, at the 59:50 mark, he mentioned "I dialed into the radio frequency"......quite likely via HAM radio.........
The FBI's Nellie Ohr coincidentally obtained a Ham radio license and radio back in 2016. I'm sure that was in the up and up just as her studies of Russian history and Literature in Moscow back in 1989.........
Cool!
