Upon completing the course, A.B. was assigned as a rifle platoon commander to 2nd Battalion 8th Marines. He was later made a weapons platoon commander.

With numerous commendations, A.B. left the Marine Corps after eight years of service. He then applied for employment with the Central Intelligence Agency. Upon successfully completing the entire application process, A.B. was selected to serve in the CIA's Special Operations Group of the Special Activities Division.

After completing the Clandestine Service Trainee Program, A.B. became a paramilitary operations officer in the Special Operations Group's Maritime Branch. In his capacity as a CIA paramilitary officer, he participated in paramilitary operations in hazardous and austere locations all over the world. A little over a year into his CIA career, A.B. was offered a position in the Incident Response Team.

A semi-autonomous unit of the National Clandestine Service, the IRT is a tactical operations group mandated to react to the current most active and time-sensitive foreign intelligence threats to U.S. security. It functions as a highly sophisticated mobile intelligence team with the capability to move from country to country anywhere in the world, sometimes covertly, sometimes with the agreement of the local government. The mission of this formidable group is to combat terrorism, nuclear threats, biological warfare and any an all assaults on the United States.

A.B. enthusiastically accepted the offer and joined the Incident Response Team. With his official cover being that of a personal services contractor with the U.S. Department of State, he is the IRT's chief field officer. A highly-skilled operations expert always willing to risk his life in the field to secure national safety, A.B. Stiles has helped save America amidst devastating national security crises on numerous occasions.
