Jack Barsky, born Albrecht Dittrich is a former secret agent of the KGB. He was born in East Germany.〔 In 1970 he was studying to become a chemistry professor when he was approached by the East German Secret Police and asked to be a spy.〔 He accepted, and after training by the KGB he was sent to the United States in 1978.〔 His American identity was taken from a child who had died at the age of ten.〔 The KGB provided him with the child's birth certificate and $6,000 in cash.〔 His mission was to get a U.S. passport, insert himself into American society and "get close to National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski".〔 He was not given very good instructions, and struggled at first.〔 Eventually he obtained a social security card, rented an apartment, and began attending college and studying computer programming.〔 He worked for MetLife and was able to provide the Soviets with programming code that helped them compete with the West.〔 Every week he received radio transmissions from the soviets.〔 Every two years he returned to Germany and Moscow for debriefing.〔 For 10 years he led a double life, with a wife and child in Germany and a wife and child in the United States.〔 His two families did not know about each other at first.〔 In 1988 he learned his cover was compromised.〔 He refused to go leave the country because he was concerned about the welfare of his American family.〔 He told the KGB he had contracted the AIDS virus and needed to stay in the United States.〔 The KGB told his German wife he was dead.〔 In 1992 a KGB defector named Vasili Mitrokhin provided information to the FBI about soviet spy operations in the U.S., including Barsky's name.〔 The FBI was able to locate Barksy, observed him for some time, and in 1997 detained and interrogated him.〔 He was never charged with espionage as the FBI determined that he was no longer an active spy and that he was a valuable source of information about spy techniques.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Spy Among Us )〕 He has since revealed the truth to his family, both in the United States and in Germany.〔 He currently works for the New York Independent System Operator as an electricity grid programmer in upstate New York.〔 He has previously been chief information officer for other energy systems.〔 He is not considered to pose a threat to the security of the power grid, but he has been placed on a leave of absence none-the-less.〔 He did not tell his employer about his past when he was hired in 2011, and they learned about it shortly before he was interviewed on 60 minutes in 2015.〔 He is writing a book about his experiences. ==References== *http://sports.yahoo.com/video/jack-barsky-shares-tos-spying-231038441-cbs.html 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jack Barsky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
