Was he a 10th Group guy? We would have gone through the Q around the same time - or a couple of years apart. But, he does not look at all familiar.
Copy of indictment - lays out facts and allegations.

Found paperwork online that he had his SF Tab revoked in 2010.

I worked with this guy in Europe. He taught Russian Affairs for the EUCOM JIOC before he got fired from failing a CI poly. Should have been an indicator..

The chicom has been adept at recruiting former OO. Amazing how greed can flip one’s allegiance

Nothing quite stomach turning as a betrayal of one of your own.
I remember when John Walker's spying was revealed in 1984, how sickened I was that a submarine radioman, the same job I had, traitorously betrayed his country, his Navy and his shipmates. For years whenever his name came up I would say just give me the opportunity I'll put a bullet in his head and piss on his corpse.

Not even greed it takes IMO a little ego stroking from a female and there you go.....we have too many narccisistic sociopaths who are looking out for themselves and being carelessly placed in sensitive positions without thought or concern...this is the age of cronyism to the th degree.....its all about badges and look at me even in the 4th bns where the former G-troop egomaniacs go. We have entirely too many people making excuses for the new generation through blind allegience or no shit stupidity. I could reel off alot of names of people who more than likely would....the first indicator should be the general arrogance and lack of discretion i.e. you can pick out a GB from a mile away. The second is the backstabbibg for the next rank

No knowledge on the second, but that first indicator is often too obvious. I strive really hard to attribute to confidence what comes across as arrogance at first impression. Where I draw the line is once the “rules for thee not for me” trend starts. The DIA/DAO crowd has been baffling me the most. Some have long tab. I’m genuinely puzzled by how O4 to O6 who had (I assume) been well behaved CONUS draw attention to themselves once OCONUS. Even when one of their own created international incident in recent years!
Proactive CI folks must be working endlessly these days

Every country the U.S. is in the Chicoms are in.....if a sensitive position is being trained in another by U.S. or any ally the Chinese know it and bring them to China to learn what we or someone else taught them....FORMICA is not just military the government of China is closely tied to all intelligence gathered unlike us....it took us awhile to finally a DNI and get past the egos of power hungry secret keepers
