That's it! Plame mentioned having been trained to handle paramilitary missions, if need be. She used a variety of weapons. She operated in Greece and some other countries before being assigned to HQ at Langley.

I think it was Scooter Libby, Cheney's Chief of Staff, who outed her to a reporter. He was mad that her husband, an ambassador, wouldn't say that he thought that Saddam had WMD. His evidence didn't suggest that.

I found the book at the library. It's amazing how much was redacted, but it was still a good read. (Redacted means that the Agency drew black lines through much of her text, eliminating still classified data..)
