"When I came to the CIA in the mid-'90s, our graduating class of case officers was unbelievably low. Now, after years of rebuilding, our training programs and putting our best efforts to recruit the most talented men and women, we are graduating more clandestine officers than at any time in the history of the Central Intelligence Agency.

It will take an additional five years to finish the job of rebuilding our clandestine service, but the results so far have been obvious."

AND WE ALL KNOW WHO WAS PRESIDENT AT THAT TIME, DON'T WE!

In 1997, I have read that the "class" of clandestine officers graduated from the CIA school totaled seven. That's 7! Today its over 100.
