| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Border Guard: The Story of the United States Customs Service" by Don Whitehead is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. The book elaborates on the development, challenges, and key events surrounding the United States Customs Service, highlighting its role as the country's primary border protection agency. It dives into various cases and incidents throughout history that showcase the struggles and successes of Customs agents against smuggling and illegal activities. The opening of the book introduces the issue of drug smuggling, focusing on a specific case involving a young seaman named Truls Arild Halvorsen. Halvorsen's journey begins with his encounter in Hong Kong, where he is lured into a smuggling operation to transport heroin to San Francisco. The text paints a vivid picture of his naive excitement, followed by fear and regret as he becomes a pawn in a dangerous game of international drug trafficking. As Halvorsen navigates through his predicament, it sets the stage for broader discussions on the Customs Service's history and operations against such illegal activities.
