      Counterintelligence Special Agent - Team Leader

      Responsible for the safety and security of Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan. Used intelligence tools, techniques and methodologies as well as critical thinking to develop plans which identified Insider Threats. Developed and executed specialized plans that aided in the deterrence of potential threats. The Army Counterintelligence (CI) Program requires its members to be mature, intelligent, and personable to carry out the broad range of CI functions to detect, identify, exploit, and neutralize any Foreign Intelligence and Security Service (FISS), International Terrorist Organizations (ITO) and Insider Threats who are targeting U.S. forces, information and technologies. The CI Special Agent has to be able to operate independently and be relied upon to make sound judgments in the absence of higher leadership or supervision. The CI Special Agent also has to interact with senior officials of both U.S. and host-nation (HN) military, civilian law enforcement, intelligence, and security agencies. This requires that personnel applying for the Army CI Program be among the most professional and competent Soldiers in the Army. The CI applicant process is extremely important in ensuring that the CI military occupational specialty (MOS) remains capable, and that the most qualified and competent personnel are accepted into the Army CI Program.
