Summary

Ninja is back in the final installment of this two-part series. This episode spans his entire career working for the CIA, covering the differences between CIA staffers and GRS contractors, and how the enemy evolved their IED based warfare into a new kind of weapon: EFP. Bob gives us a behind the scenes look at the Khost bombing and the triple agent behind it. Learn about an event in Tripoli that saved 150+ lives and lasted a grueling 24 hours - the greatest evacuation you've never heard about. We'll wrap up with his transition into civilian life and a high-speed motorcycle crash that changed everything.
