I worked for the CIA back in the 60's.  When someone asks me about
what I used to do, I don't even tell them I used to work for the CIA
because there are some many phonies that tell that story that it makes
anyone who actually did look like another lier. I had a letter from
them verifying my employment and report date but have lost it.  I was
a staff employee.

Hi dinkydow,

provides contact details for potential employers:

creditor or potential employer, please address inquiries to:

Of course, I am not sure how long the CIA keeps their records.

All the best in your quest,
