Counterspies Hunting Mole at NSA

When I was in the U.S. Navy many years ago we joked that NSA stood for No Such Agency.

Today NSA (National Security Agency), the super-secret intelligence agency, is better known to the public.

After the Navy I went on to do security work for the Defense Department as a civilian employee and in that capacity I visited NSA headquarters at Fort Meade in Maryland on several occasions.

So with some interest I read Bill Gertz's piece in The Washington Times that stated that NSA's counterintelligence people are hunting a "mole" who may have had a connection to the Russian spy ring that the FBI rolled up a while back.

Bill Gertz is an outstanding national security correspondent. You can read his piece via the below link:
