Its not just his familiarity with the Alliance that clinches it for me, its that he seems to know how an operative thinks and what strategies he will use. While somebody high ranking in the Alliance would have knowledge of the existence of the operatives, the only way he could have that sort of insight is that he was once an operative.
I`m not convinced that Book had any other job in beween. If all operatives are as focused as the one in the movie is, and I suspect they are then they dont have anything outside their work. Its hard imagining someone like that deciding on a career change and becoming a Politician, General or whatever. They either die on a mission, have some sort of moral crisis and either find something else (like religion) to believe in or fall on their sword, or retire to `Assasin School` and train the next generation of operatives.

Gonna spoilerise, just in case you haven't seen the MOVIE.

Select to view spoiler:



Yep , I think Book was an operative. I think the Operative was a type of poetical echo of Book.

I think that leaves room for the Operative to come back later on, maybe in the end of the second movie or in the third movie(God providing they actually happen)

I would like the to see the Operator come back, as a reformed , redeemed , shepard like, spiritual guy, like our friend Book.

Also, Jubal Early knocked Book out. Do you think he could take out the Operative. Or they about the same level?

You know we never saw Jubal die...
