Join us for our 4th Quarter Breakfast and Educational Presentation at the InterContinental Houston – Medical Center. This will be held in-person, AND broadcast virtually – for our outlying areas and remote members.
This event will include chapter news & announcements and our featured speaker. James Olson, the former Chief of Soviet Operations at the CIA, spent his 31-year undercover career at the CIA focused on Russia. He first started tracking Vladimir Putin when Putin was a lieutenant colonel in the KGB in East Germany in the 1980s. Mr. Olson will share his knowledge of Putin with the audience and describe the many assassinations and atrocities for which Putin has been responsible, most recently in Ukraine, but also in Chechnya, Syria, and elsewhere. This is the story of a monster, a man with no respect for human life, international law, or national sovereignty. Mr. Olson will draw on his operational experiences in Moscow to highlight how Putin and the KGB have operated. He will leave time in the end for questions from the audience.
