New head of CIA's National Clandestine Service profiled in Newsweek

In Newsweek, Jeff Stein profiles Frank Archibald, who was named head of the CIA’s National Clandestine Service earlier this year. Stein describes him as “a nice guy in a killer job – literally;” an “affable, hulking former Clemson University football player, 57,” who is now the guy in charge of the CIA division that handles the “agency’s spies and hunter-killer teams, like the ones dispatched to Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Libya and elsewhere in search of al Qaeda and other terrorist spore.” [Newsweek]
