I have two members of my family that I am positive work for the CIA: getting them to admit it is not possible......and you know I have tried!

I had a cousin who was covered by the state department for years. He had to come out of the cold when his son wanted to work there (anti-nepotism law).

I am glad I spotted your reply. Here is my question to you and to all other Freepers. I have heard from the media that it is against the law to knowingly tell anyone that someone is a CIA agent. Now, that seems to cover second and third parties. But what about the agent themselves? Are they allowed to tell that they are a agent? Does that break the law.

True story:

I was at a grandsons soccer game when one of the parents of a kid on his team informs not only me, but my wife, that he works for the CIA and has done work in Afghanistan. Not only that, but the grandsons parents knew he was CIA before we did. For all I knew at the time, every parent from the team knew this. Now, this guy is either blowing smoke or is telling the truth. If telling the truth, where does this fall into regarding the law?

Thanks for sharing that info. You should probably not ask your relatives anymore. Do you think they would want your suspicions aired in public?

If you're from the backwoods of Appalachia, you might want to try "heavy make-out sessions" to get such info.
