THE KILLER ELITE (1975) Grade: B-

Clever crime film that will be a cool remake now. Didn't realize it was a Peckinpah till it started. Good char development.

Born in Cuba, Prado and his family were caught in the midst of the Castro Revolution, and fled their war-torn home for a better life in the U.S. Fifty years after that daring escape, he retired from the CIA as the agency’s equivalent of a Two-Star General. During his two-and-a-half decade career, he was one of the agency’s best and most dedicated Black Ops specialists. Early in his career he served as a paramilitary officer in the agency’s elite Special Activities Group, where he fought alongside the Contras in the U.S.’s clandestine war against Nicaragua’s Sandinistas. Through his heroism and dedicated service there, he was awarded the CIA’s Intelligence Medal of Merit. As soon as he returned stateside, however, he faced the political firing squad of the Iran-Contra Scandal. His career took him around the globe in duty stations in Central and South America as well as the Philippines. Following those posts, Prado joined the highest echelons of the CIA headquarters in Langley, VA. Toward the end of 1995, Prado was appointed Deputy Chief of Station and co-founding member of the Bin Laden Task Force, followed by three years as head of Korean Operations. It was at that point that he took on one of the most dangerous missions of his career, re-establishing a once-abandoned CIA station inside a hostile nation long since considered a front line of the fight against Islamic terrorism. Prado carried out covert operations and developed assets that proved pivotal in the coming War on Terror. As Chief of Operations for the CIA’s Counterterrorist Center, he was one of the architects of the agency’s covert war to destroy Al Qaeda in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks.

Amigos, estaba hablando con una C.IA de Tord y aunque al principio casi me mata le propuse cojerse al Tom y dijo que si, de hecho le encanto la idea y yo asi como de "asi te queria agarrar puerco" ahora quiere hasta vestirlo de maid, yo solo se lo decia en broma para hacer que se enojara más, pero bueno
