Hey Doug, thanks for doing another AMA! Your journey continues to be a source of inspiration; one that is equal to, in my opinion, that of Bob Baer and other officers, or any of the senior leaders on the 7th floor. Left of Boom needed to be written. Period. A few quick questions:

1) Do you think the intelligence community does a well enough job of assisting in the preparation of an officer who wishes to leave? Regardless, how would you improve that transition?

2) Knowing what you know of the company now vs before you had been hired, if you were told that the position of Operations Officer was unavailable to you, what other position would you have gone after, if any? Why?

3) What is your critical reading list for those wishing to find themselves working within the umbrella of the DO?

Thank you for your time.
