YES! Thank you, Hansen. How old is he? I can't recall. Likely too young to know anything first hand.
He's in his late 50s I think. Had been with the FBI like 25 years when "caught" so he wouldn't have been around until about '76 and then he would have been a rookie, I am guessing.

Although the agency says it doesn't know how much damage the alleged spy Robert Hanson did, it concedes the impact was grave.

MICHAEL CAREY: On Monday morning it came to an end with agents picking up Hanssen after he'd apparently hidden a package of classified material under a footbridge in Virginia parkland which his Russian handlers were expected to retrieve it.
The FBI says 56-year-old Hanssen looked surprised.
For his part today Director Freeh looked grim faced as he recounted the agent's career and alleged treason.
LOUIS FREEH: The information he's alleged to have provided compromised numerous sources, technical operations and FBI counter-intelligence techniques, sources and methods.
