Are we security-minded, as we move about in our daily lives? What can we do to become more discerning to hidden dangers? My phenomenal guest has expert insight into these questions and more! I introduce to you, Mr. Thomas Pecora.
Thomas (Tom) Pecora has over thirty years of experience working in the security field and twenty-four years working in the CIA. He retired from the CIA as a GS 15 Senior Security Manager working in protective operations, counter-terrorism, and security training, most of it operating in low intensity conflict areas. He was Chief of Security in several countries where he was responsible for countrywide security programs ensuring the safety and security
Mr. Pecora wrote "GUARDIAN - Life in the Crosshairs of the CIA's War on Terror" which is a historical memoir chronicling his 24 years in the CIA in protective operations, counter-terrorism and security working in some of the worst terrorist hotbeds in the world.
It took more than 3 years to get this book thru the CIA's Publication Review Board, and it contains stories never before shared with the public about the work of the Protective Operations Cadre and other security professionals who protect CIA personnel in the harshest locations on earth.
“GUARDIAN” is the pre-qual to the "13 Hours" movie by Michael Bay, and book about the CIA security officers in Benghazi who saved the State Department personnel. This unit was never acknowledged until after Benghazi and boasts an incredible record of keeping CIA personnel safe.
Currently Mr. Pecora is a personal safety expert and trainer, and a consultant trainer for an Active Shooter training company; as well as the Safety Officer in Residence for Jozu for Women’s WanderSafe travel safety company.
Listen as he gives insight into how to protect ourselves in domestic and international territory. Also, make sure to read his exciting book that will reveal more information than we have heard before.
