Inside a U.S. Embassy
 Praise for the 2nd edition of Inside a U.S. Embassy

“An anthology of brief essays and personal testimonies penned by experienced

professionals. . . . includes profiles . . . typical days . . . and amazing glimpses of the
Foreign Service in action during moments of crisis. A fascinating revelation of the
tireless men and women who labor to represent America abroad.”
—Midwest Book Review

“I’m fascinated by the contents. I think that not only members of the Committee but
all Americans will be deeply interested in this.”
—Richard Lugar, R-Ind.
Senate Foreign Relations Committee

“I am absolutely a fan of this book. What makes it so interesting is that it’s about individuals
and what they do, and it’s about how they support the United States in an active way.”
—Ambassador Marc Grossman
Career Ambassador and Former Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs

“Every day in hundreds of places around the world, thousands of your fellow
Americans are at work in direct support of you and your interests. From helping
Americans in trouble, to formulating American foreign policy, to talking to foreign
leaders about cooperation in hundreds of different areas from trade to technology to
preventing nuclear war, these people make a difference. This book tells the fascinating
inside story of how it all works.”
—Ambassador Thomas R. Pickering
Boeing Company Senior Vice President for International Relations and
Former Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs

“Inside a U.S. Embassy is required reading for the first week of my university seminar on
practical diplomacy. My students are amazed at the variety and uniqueness of Foreign Service
work described in the book’s first-hand accounts. I wouldn’t teach the course without it.”
—Ambassador Genta Hawkins Holmes
Former Diplomat in Residence, University of California, Davis

“Inside a U.S. Embassy sits on my desk and I recommend it to all interested in the
Foreign Service.”
—Ambassador Karl F. Inderfurth
Professorial Lecturer at George Washington University’s Elliott School of
International Affairs and Former Assistant Secretary of State for South
Asian Affairs

“Readers will find an up-to-date, compelling, interesting, accurate and highly readable
depiction of the Foreign Service and its vital role in service to our nation. The profiles
and the stories all show the rich diversity of our people, in terms of both their varied
backgrounds and the wide range of services they perform.”
—Ambassador Ruth A. Davis
Distinguished Adviser for International Affairs at Howard University and
Former Director General of the Foreign Service

 Why This Book?
By Shawn Dorman

M
any Americans do not know what the Foreign Service is or understand
what goes on inside a U.S. embassy. Yet the work done at our embassies
and consulates around the world by the people who make up the
Foreign Service is vitally important to America—our security, our economy, and
our democracy. Every day, consular officers help stranded Americans get home.
Every day, economic and commercial officers assist U.S. businesses to compete
overseas. During times of upheaval, political officers are the ones on the front
lines around the world keeping Washington informed about the real situation.
U.S. diplomats negotiate the international agreements that end the wars, keep the
peace, and protect and promote U.S. interests. Foreign Service diplomats and spe-
cialists are truly the unsung heroes of American foreign policy.
This book will give you an up-close and personal look into the work and lives
of the people who make up the United States Foreign Service. The people you
will meet work at big embassies as well as tiny consulates, in Asia, Africa, Europe,
Latin America, and the Middle East. They are ambassadors and they are entry-level
officers (and everything in between). They are development professionals, press of-
ficers, security agents, and computer experts. They are a diverse group, but they
all share the same mission—to serve their country.
In the Profiles section, meet Foreign Service staff serving in almost every type
of position in a typical U.S. embassy, and gain a sense of the vital role played by
each member of an embassy team. In the Day in the Life section, take a rare hour-
by-hour look at what Foreign Service employees actually do on the job, from Port-
au-Prince to Vladivostok and beyond. The Tales from the Field section will give you
a sense of the extraordinary, as the Foreign Service meets the challenges of today’s
complex world.
A new section for this third edition covers life and work in the Foreign Service,
illustrating that it is not just a job, but a way of life. Beginning with the embassy
country team, see how all the pieces of an embassy fit together; how a career is
shaped; and how spouses, partners, and children navigate this unique lifestyle.
Among other voices, hear from a Foreign Service National what it’s like to work
with Americans, from a spouse on working in the embassy, and from two young
adults on growing up in the Foreign Service.
Input from our readers led us to write another new section, on joining the
Foreign Service. Part V offers straightforward step-by-step guides to the complex
hiring processes for State Department officers and specialists, the U.S. Agency for
International Development (USAID), and the other foreign affairs agencies.

 What Is the Foreign Service?
By John K. Naland and Susan Johnson

T
he 14,000 men and women of the Foreign Service represent the government
and people of the United States. At more than 265 diplomatic and consular
posts, the U.S. Foreign Service safeguards national security and manages
America’s relationships with the rest of the world. America’s diplomacy began in the
eighteenth century with Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and
others who were dispatched abroad by our young nation to promote its vital inter-
ests. Thanks to their skilled diplomacy, the warring colonies received vital French
help—help that finally turned the tide of the revolution. In the years that followed,
separate diplomatic and consular services evolved, each primarily staffed by short-
term appointees who changed en masse after each new president took office.
Efforts to replace this inefficient “spoils system” gathered steam following a
1906 order by President Theodore Roosevelt that began to depoliticize the con-
sular service and a 1909 order by President William Howard Taft to modernize the
diplomatic service. Then, responding to America’s increasing foreign involvement
during and after World War I, U.S. Representative John Jacob Rogers, R-Mass.,
spearheaded the unification of the diplomatic and consular services into a single
corps of professionals recruited and promoted on the basis of merit. The Foreign
Service Act of 1924, known as the Rogers Act, established a career Foreign Service
composed of professionals who possess keen understanding of the affairs, cultures,
and languages of other countries and who are available to serve in assignments
throughout the world as ordered. The Rogers Act of 1924 evolved into the Foreign
Service Act of 1980, which set the framework of today’s Foreign Service.
At any given time, two-thirds of Foreign Service personnel are stationed abroad
staffing our embassies and consulates—serving one- to three-year tours—and one-
third are working in the United States, mostly in Washington, D.C. Overseas,
they are assisted by 37,000 locally employed staff. Domestically, they work beside
Civil Service colleagues who provide continuity and expertise in functions such as
legal, consular, and financial affairs. Foreign Service members work for five federal
agencies: the Department of State, the U.S. Agency for International Development,
the Department of Commerce’s Foreign Commercial Service, the Department of
Agriculture’s Foreign Agricultural Service, and the International Broadcasting
Bureau (primarily at the Voice of America). Foreign Service members also
serve tours on congressional staffs and at other federal agencies, including the
National Security Council, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, and the
Department of Defense.

 WHAT IS THE FOREIGN SERVICE? 3

The Foreign Service is a career like no other. It is much more than a job; it is
a uniquely demanding and rewarding way of life. As representatives of the United
States to foreign governments, Foreign Service members have a direct impact on
people’s lives and participate in the making of history. They travel the globe,
experiencing foreign cultures as no tourist can. They work alongside highly talented
colleagues, face the unexpected every day, and find themselves in situations that
push their ingenuity and creativity to the limit.
But a Foreign Service career also imposes significant demands. Typically,
Foreign Service members spend two-thirds of their careers overseas, often in un-
healthy or otherwise difficult locations. They live for extended periods of time far
from parents, siblings, and old friends, and sometimes without familiar amenities
or access to modern medical facilities. Due to international terrorism, Foreign
Service members face physical danger almost everywhere they serve.
Most Foreign Service veterans, however, have found that the rewards of repre-
senting our nation far outweigh the personal burdens. Diplomacy is an instrument
of national power, essential for maintaining effective international relationships,
and a principal means through which the U.S. defends its interests, responds to
crises, and achieves its international goals. The Foreign Service is a proud profession,
safeguarding American interests by: managing diplomatic relations with other
countries and international institutions; promoting peace and stability in regions
of vital interest; bringing nations together to address global challenges; promoting
democracy and human rights around the world; opening markets abroad to create
jobs at home; helping developing nations establish stable economic environments;
helping ensure that American businesspeople have a level playing field on which
to compete for foreign investment and trade; protecting U.S. borders and help-
ing legitimate foreign travelers enter the United States; and assisting U.S. citizens
who travel or live abroad.
The American Foreign Service Association, established in 1924—the same year
as the Foreign Service itself—is both a professional association and the collective
bargaining representative for all active and retired Foreign Service professionals,
more than 28,000 people. It negotiates the regulations affecting employees’ careers,
advocates Foreign Service issues before Congress, and communicates its profes-
sional concerns to the news media and general public. AFSA works to make the
Foreign Service a better supported, more respected, and more satisfying place to
spend a career and raise a family. These goals, in turn, serve to make the Foreign
Service a more effective agent of U.S. international leadership.

Susan Johnson is AFSA president, and John Naland served as AFSA president from
2001 to 2003 and 2007 to 2009.
