Michael Hayden, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, announced on Wednesday that he was giving up his day job as an Air Force Four Star General and will henceforth be devoting his full attention to running the ‘The Company’ after his retirement party this July.

Mr. Hayden, who has served in the USAF for 39 years, will enjoy a comfy pension of $204,000 a year after he hangs up his stars later this summer. That tidy sum will be in addition to the $172,000 salary that he will be bringing home to the wife and kids as the director of the all things clandestine at Langley, Virginia.

Mr. Hayden’s doppelgänger, actor Kurtwood Smith, was unavailable for comment.
