Delta Force takes any background and molds them into the most capable fighting force arguably on the planet, ISA on the other hand, takes that same diversity and crafts the most capable covert spy operatives in the world. In this episode of The Reed Morin Show, we sit down with Dave Fielding, a former Green Beret turned CIA/ISA spy, who worked alongside the most secretive intelligence teams in U.S. history.
In part two of this series, Dave details his journey from Green Beret to the highly classified Tier 1 unit, ISA (more secretive than Delta Force and DEVGRU), his training to become a CIA spy, and his time in Afghanistan working with Delta Force to take down Iranian General Qasem Soleimani.
