Welcome to the International Spy museum and thank you so much for coming out this evening. Im peter ernest, the executive collector of the museum and im very pleased to introduce craig floyd whom ive known for a number of years who keeps trying to build a competitor museum. Although ive put obstacles in his way progress continues and im sure it will go very well. We look forward to his joining and that museum joining us here in this city of museums. Im very, very pleased to welcome him and all of you to the International Spy museum this evening. So have a great evening. Enjoy. Let me welcome everyone here tonight. This is our 8th in a series of events that we call witness to history. It gives us a very important opportunity to get a first hand glimpse of the major moments in Law Enforcement history from those who actually participated in those events. Tonight we take a look into what the u. S. Department of justice has called, quote, possibly the worst intelligence disaster in u. S. Hi
