Sinopsis

In the authorâÇÖs debut memoir, she left the small, all-black community of Camptown in southeastern VA, at 17 years old to attend the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC).áAfter waffling at UMBC for four years without declaring a major, she joined the U.S. Army to pay off mounting debt and to complete her bachelorâÇÖs degree.áThe Army allowed Tena to travel the world and learn about its people. She worked hard at every leadership position offered and advanced in rank to First Sergeant.áAs part of the premiere Intelligence Corp, Tena worked in support of the National Security Agency (NSA) for over 10 years as a soldier, to return after retirement, to become a civilian leader. For many years, the NSA was identified with its iconic dark-glass cube-shaped headquarters building at Fort Meade in Maryland, as No Such Agency.ááIt took on a mysterious persona and so did its workforce.áNot everyone knows the NSA is an intelligence agency located at Fort George G. Meade, Maryland.áMost people I know, confuse NSA with NASA (the National Aeronautical Space Agency).After Edward Snowden became a household name in 2013, the public probably learned more than they cared to about NSA and its four replicated regional centers spread across the United States. Tena worked at three such centers, the headquarters building at Fort Meade, and at the agencyâÇÖs school, the National Cryptologic School (NCS). By 1400hrs on 31 October 2017, she had her security outbrief, which reminded her yet again of the lifetime pre-publication obligation. After seeing the site Commander and civilian Deputy Commander for a quick grip & grin, and a CommanderâÇÖs coin, Tena headed for the gate. She ceremoniously tossed her temporary (T) badge in the drop box at the gate.áOut the gate on Potranco, she flipped the entire site a bird.áá
