The 8-year-old son of a CIA officer called these shoes “Dad’s lucky boots” after he learned how his father wore these boots while deployed as part of Team Alpha, the first tactical team sent to Afghanistan after 9/11.

The CIA officer wore these boots almost 24 hours a day for 3 months: climbing mountains, forging rivers, & riding Afghan horses.
He also survived a deadly ambush by al-Qaida prisoner-fighters in the Qala-I-Jangi fortress on November 25, 2001.

Now in CIA Museum, these artifacts bear the title “Dad’s Lucky Boots” to recognize sacrifices our officers & their families make in service to their country.
#HappyFathersDay to all the dads who serve. A grateful nation celebrates you today.
