The key takeaways are that DIA was established in 1961 to serve as the primary producer of foreign military intelligence for the US. It has played important roles in many major events like the Cold War and more recently the War on Terror.

The purpose of DIA is to address problems in intelligence production and management by creating a unified military intelligence agency.

DIA was established in the summer of 1961 by Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara under President John F. Kennedy.

Defense Intelligence Agency

A Brief History of the Defense Intelligence Agency


Since its creation in 1961, the Defense Intelligence Agency has made vital contributions to US national security efforts. The concept of a Defense Intelligence Agency developed between 1945 and 1961, when several independent boards recommended creating a unified military intelligence agency to address problems in intelligence production and management. Efforts languished until Robert McNamaraSecretary of Defense under President John F. Kennedyestablished DIA in the summer of 1961. Soon afterward, on 1 October, DIA became operational as the nations primary producer of foreign military intelligence. In its first decade, DIA immediately faced two defining events of the Cold War: The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Vietnam War. On one hand, decisionmakers lauded DIAs assistance during the Cuban Missile Crisis, but on the other hand, the Vietnam War exposed managerial shortcomings in the Agency that led to a period of change. In the 1970s, DIA underwent several transformations to improve its intelligence products. Despite declining resources and staffing, a series of energetic Directors strengthened the Agencys managerial role and improved DIAs cooperation within the Department of Defense and in the Intelligence Community. As a result, DIA began having a more substantial impact in major national security issues such as nuclear arms control negotiations, war planning, and intelligence estimation. As Cold War tensions with the Soviet Union increased dramatically in the early 1980s, DIA improved its technological, collection, and managerial capabilities to meet the intelligence needs of both military commanders and national-level decisionmakers. DIA intelligence played a major role in strategic decisions about the Soviet Union, but also contributed to tactical and operational planning in the Caribbean and Central America. The Goldwater-Nichols Defense Reorganization Act also designated DIA as a Combat Support Agency, enhancing its ability to provide actionable intelligence support to the Combatant Commands. The Agencys maturation paid major dividends in the post-Cold War era. In the buildup to hostilities in Operation DESERT SHIELD/DESERT STORM, DIA surged to activate an intelligence task force and expand its Operational Intelligence Crisis Center. DIA intelligence teams also spread out in theater and to US Central Command to tailor intelligence support to Coalition forces in Iraq. The Agency has deployed National Intelligence Support Teams (NISTs) to locations such as northern Iraq, Kenya, Somalia, Kosovo, Bosnia, Albania, and Haiti. In 1992, the Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communications Systems (JWICS) and the Joint Deployable Intelligence Support System (JDISS) came on line, providing secure, high-speed, multi-media transmission of intelligence information. That same year, the Armed Forces Medical Intelligence Center (AFMIC) and the Missile and Space Intelligence Center (MSIC) became elements of DIA. The newly formed Defense HUMINT (Human Intelligence) Service (DHS) achieved its initial operating capacity in 1995, consolidating the HUMINT activities of all the Services under the umbrella of DIA. In the twenty-first century, DIA has continued to improve its ability to provide intelligence support to military operations. Following the attacks of 11 September 2001, DIA responded with timely and focused intelligence to combat al-Qaida and related terrorist networks and their sponsors throughout the world. In addition, the Agency has increased its deployment of personnel overseas. DIA has also responded to humanitarian crises, supporting rescue operations in the aftermath of the catastrophic tsunami in the Indian Ocean (2004), Hurricane Katrina (2005), and devastating earthquakes in Pakistan (2005) and Haiti (2010) in Haiti. Today, with more than 16,500 civilian and military employees, the Agency continues to provide a broad spectrum of intelligence support to operations around the globe. For five decades DIA has provided timely and objective military intelligence to warfighters, defense planners, and policymakers. From the Cold War to the Gulf War, from the conflict in Vietnam to the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, from confronting communism to battling terrorism, the talented and dedicated professionals of DIA have repeatedly demonstrated their commitment to excellence in defense of the nation.

2012 DIA Calendar


Since 2004, the DIA Historical Research Branch has produced an annual calendar focusing on various aspects of DIAs history, capabilities, and missions. From 2004-2007, the calendar highlighted DIAs collection of Soviet Military Art, comprising more than 1,000 paintings and drawings completed between 1965 and 1989 by Agency artists. The calendar for 2008 focused more broadly on the history of military intelligence while those of 2009 and 2010 highlighted DIA support to military operations. The 2011 calendar, issued as part of the DIAs 50th anniversary, celebrated the Agencys five decades of commitment to excellence in defense of the nation. This years calendar continues the tradition of exploring new and innovative approaches to the calendar by focusing on the Agencys Strategic Plan. This dynamic new strategy will guide the Agency in strengthening and uniting its core defense intelligence capabilities to support warfighters and policymakers in an era of persistent international conflict and enduring fiscal challenges. The strategy identifies four intelligence competencies that comprise DIAs core mission (All Source Analysis, Counterintelligence, Human Intelligence, Measurement and Signature Intelligence) and four fundamental goals for the Agency during the next five years (Prevent Strategic Surprise and Support Contingency Operations, Strengthen Core Mission Capabilities, Partner and Innovate to Gain Advantage, Optimize Performance Relevance). The 2012 calendar examines these competencies and goals from a historical perspective and traces the Agencys performance and growth over the past fifty years.

2012-2017 Defense Intelligence Agency Strategy


Over the past fifteen years DIAs leaders have developed a number of strategic plans to guide the agency in its efforts to provide both warfighters and policymakers with timely, high quality intelligence. DIAs 1999 Strategic Plan, for example, was named Vector 21 and was described as a vision and strategic roadmap to prepare us for the challenges of the 21st century. The Defense Intelligence Agency Strategic Plan for the years 2004-2009 provided a framework for meeting current and future demands while engaging in defense transformation. The 2012-2017 Defense Intelligence Agency Strategy is summarized by the theme One Mission. One Team. One Agency. The result of a series of dialogues which took place across the workforce, DIAs new strategic plan emphasizes integration, partnership and cooperation as effective methods of achieving the Agencys goals.

DIA Intelligence Competency: All-Source Analysis


The Defense Intelligence Agency manages and directs the Department of Defenses all-source analytic efforts against the military intentions and capabilities of current adversaries, ranging from global and rising regional powers to non-state terrorist networks. DIA has successfully executed this mission from its earliest years. During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, DIA analysts played a key role in planning reconnaissance flight routes and evaluating photographic, human and signals intelligence for its consumers, which included President John F. Kennedy, Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Maxwell D. Taylor. Twenty-four years later, the Agency received its first Joint Meritorious Unit Award, acknowledging the Agencys success in providing unparalleled intelligence support encompassing the broadest range of intelligence analysis, technical services, photograph processing and reconnaissance imagery to meet the real time requirements of national decisionmakers. DIAs subsequent JMUAs, awarded after the Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 established DIA as a combat support agency, cite the Agencys all-source analytical support to national decisionmakers and joint and coalition military commanders.

Retired DIA Analyst Is Found Dead; Was to Be Arraigned in Spying Case

DIA Intelligence Competency: Counterintelligence
DIA assumed oversight and program management responsibilities for DOD counterintelligence (CI) activities following the disestablishment of the Counterintelligence Field Activity in August of 2008. DIAs enhanced CI capabilities protect DOD secrets and operations by identifying, neutralizing and exploiting foreign intelligence and international terrorist threats. These capabilities have sometimes been deployed against threats arising from within the Agency itself. Just after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, DIA senior analyst Ana Belen Montes was arrested in her office in the DIAC and charged with espionage. Montes had been spying for the Cuban government since she joined DIA in 1985. She is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence. Montes was not the first senior DIA analyst to be accused of providing intelligence to countries unfriendly to the United States. In 1983, recently retired DIA Middle East Defense Intelligence Officer (DIO) Waldo Dubberstein was indicted for passing intelligence to Libya during the late 1970s. Dubberstein committed suicide before his case went to trial.

DIA Intelligence Competency: Human Intelligence


DIA conducts worldwide strategic collection operations against foreign military intentions and capabilities in support of national DOD requirements. Whether operating in a foreign capital or on a battlefield, DIAs Defense Attachs, overt and clandestine collectors, and interrogators posses specialized expertise and often have unique access to high-value military sources. DIAs role in managing and collecting defense human intelligence dates back to the Agencys earliest years to the Defense Attach System (DAS), established in 1964 and placed under DIA in 1965. Defense Attachs provide military commanders and policymakers with valuable information and timely eyewitness accounts of developments in their host country. Perhaps the most well-known Defense Attach in the history of the Agency is LTG Vernon A. Walters, USA. LTG Walters distinguished himself as a remarkable military officer, diplomat and unrivaled linguist. He served three tours of duty as a Defense Attach in Italy, Brazil and France and his assignment with DIA during the 1960s and 1970s served as a model for current and future generations of Defense Attachs.

DIA Intelligence Competency: Measurement and Signature Intelligence


In 1995, DIA was designated as the Intelligence Communitys Executive Agent for Measurement and Signature Intelligence (MASINT), defined as information produced by quantitative and qualitative analysis of physical attributes of targets and events to characterize, locate and identify them. MASINT is divided into six sub-disciplines: geophysical intelligence, electro-optical intelligence, radar intelligence, radio-frequency intelligence, nuclear radiation intelligence, and materials intelligence. In July 2009, the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) appointed the Director, Defense Intelligence Agency as MASINT Functional manager for the US Intelligence Community (IC). The National MASINT Office (NMO) was established in Fall of 2010 and assumed the responsibility of Functional Management for the entire MASINT discipline. NMO manages and executes Director DIAs key MASINT responsibilities and functions to enable the IC to better conduct MASINT operations and to provide MASINT products to its national and Department of Defense Customers. In his role as IC MASINT Functional Manager, the Director serves as the principle advisor to the DNI on the performance of MASINT collection systems such as radar and air sampling platforms, seismic, acoustic, and infrasonic programs, and a wide array of other assets and technologies.

DIA Goal 1: Prevent Strategic Surprise and Support Contingency Operations


Effective warning relies on close collaboration among collectors, collection managers, analysts, planners, and policymakers, all focused on identifying potential threats to the United States and preventing strategic surprise. History provides numerous examples of the importance of preventing strategic surprise, to include the ICs failure to predict the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia (1968) and the Yom Kippur War (1973). Although strategic surprise may never be completely eliminated, the IC has taken steps to reduce the frequency and impact of potential incidents through improvements in analytical tradecraft and the use of new technologies. DIA has a long history of conducting overseas deployments. In recent years this capability has experienced a significant maturation. DIAs first significant deployment occurred in the last years of the Vietnam War, when approximately 100 DIA personnel deployed to the Defense Attach Office, Saigon. The next significant deployment supported Operations DESERT SHIELD/ DESERT STORM in the early 1990s. DIA deployments in support of Operations IRAQI FREEDOM and ENDURING FREEDOM have exceeded all of these past operations.

mentor younger personnel, recruiting a diverse workforce, and emphasizing continuing training and education programs for all employees. The effort to recruit a younger and more diverse workforce has recently accelerated: DIAs 18-29 year old cohort has grown from 2 percent to 14 percent in eight years, and today 40 percent of the DIA workforce has less than five years of government service, up from 18 percent eight years ago. In three years, DIA has increased its foreign language capacity by 17 percent. These statistics represent deliberate attempts to avoid past mistakes. During previous eras of national fiscal constraint, such as the early 1970s and the mid-1990s, DIA was asked to reorganize itself to eliminate redundancies and achieve maximum efficiency. The reorganizations of the 1970s and 1990s resulted in the loss of experienced cadres of subject matter experts, reduced the ranks of experienced leaders, and disrupted the training, mentoring, and similar activities that are STANT DIRECTOR critically important for maintaining a robust leadership pipeline. The unique challenges presented R PROCESSING by the demographics of the DIA workforce today are in no small measure a result of the reductions and reorganizations of the 1990s.

DIA Goal 3: Partner and Innovate to Gain Advantage


As the Defense Intelligence Agency and the broader Intelligence Community confront an era of increasing complexity and decreasing resources, the ability to develop new and/or leverage existing interagency partnerships and to establish new partnerships with academia and the private sector, will be critical to mission success. Similarly, strengthening collaborative efforts with our current foreign partners and establishing mutually beneficial relationships with new foreign partners is of central importance to our efforts to prevent strategic surprise and to improve collection and analytical opportunities. DIA currently has dozens of intelligence relationships worldwide. Historically, one of the most important of these partnerships has been the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom. This relationship began during World War I and strengthened considerably during World War II. During the early years of the Cold War, a series of formal agreements led to the sharing of missile technologies, weapons design, and information pertaining to arms sales. More recently, the United Kingdoms Defense School of Intelligence has teamed up with DIAs Joint Military Intelligence Training Centers Asymmetric Warfare Branch to develop analytical training programs.

DIA Goal 4: Optimize Performance Relevance


In an era of increasing fiscal constraints organizations must pursue policies and implement processes aimed at ensuring that key strategic priorities continue to be supported, and that decisions at all levels regarding operations, recruitment, training, programming, budgeting, policy and acquisition, reflect these priorities. As DIA enters into such a period, it is perhaps useful to highlight the fact that this is not the first time the Agency has faced such a challenging fiscal environment. In the 1970s, DIA experienced drastic budget cuts that ultimately resulted in a 31 percent reduction in manpower. To meet these challenges, the agency conducted several reorganizations intended both to address past shortcomings and to allow it to meet new responsibilities. In the 1990s, following the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, the Agency faced significant resource reductions as the Congress and the country at large sought to reap the benefits of the so-called peace dividend. In order to avoid the level of disruption that accompanied the draconian cuts of the 1970s, the DIA leadership restructured the agencys directorates to eliminate unnecessary duplication and to allow the agency to operate more efficiently with fewer resources. Today, the 2012-2017 Defense Intelligence Agency Strategy supports Agency efforts to find efficiencies and to implement performance management and assessment tools in support of DIAs mission to provide the highest quality all-source defense intelligence to warfighters, defense planners, and policymakers.

Fiftieth Anniversary of the National Intelligence University


The Department of Defense established the Defense Intelligence School in 1962, and the expanded and accredited institution became the Defense Intelligence College in 1980. In 1993 the college was renamed the Joint Military Intelligence College. It became the National Defense Intelligence College in 2007, and in the fall of 2010 the Director of National Intelligence, recognizing education as a force multiplier, requested that the Secretary of Defense re-designate the College as the National Intelligence University. The institution was re-designated as the National Intelligence University at the August 29, 2011 Convocation for the class of 2012. Said DIA Director LTG Ronald L. Burgess, Jr., USA, Since its inception, this institution has played a critical role in our nations preparedness to meet the challenges posed by evolving and enduring threats. With every graduate and graduation ceremony, the universitys contribution to the nations security grows.

The Patriots Memorial honors Defense Intelligence Agency employees who died in the service of the United States. Reflecting a cross section of DIA personnel, this honor roll includes both military and civilian, officer and enlisted, and men and women. Although many DIA casualties were uniformed personnel working overseas in Defense Attach Offices, five female civilian employees were killed in Operation BABYLIFT during the Fall of Saigon in 1975, and seven civilian employees died in DIA offices at the Pentagon during 9/11, the event which represents the largest loss of life in a single event in the Agencys history. DIA dedicated its 9/11 Memorial, entitled United in Memory Committed to Freedom, on September 11, 2009. One year earlier, the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial, an outdoor memorial located on the west side of the Pentagon, was dedicated to those individuals inside the building and on American Airlines Flight 77 who perished in the attack on the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.

The DIA Historical Research Support Branch: Preserving the Past, Informing the Present
The numerous challenges we faced over the past decade, those we currently face today, and those we will likely face in the future, suggest that deepening our understanding of history in all its varied forms (e.g. organizational history, military history, regional history, cultural history, etc.) is more than just an esoteric hobby or enjoyable pastime; it is essential to mission success. The calculus is straightforward: historical awareness contributes to better analysis; better analysis supports better decisionmaking; better decisionmaking, both on the battlefield and inside the Beltway, produces better outcomes at a reduced cost in blood and treasure. With this in mind, DIAs Historical Research Support Branch is exploring new ways to leverage history and the talents of our DIA historians in support of our three primary missions: 1) To conduct historical analysis and prepare historical products in support of the Agencys core analytical mission; 2) To develop and preserve the institutional memory of the Agency; and 3) To raise the level of historical awareness among the DIA workforce. We accomplish these missions by preparing a wide range of written products, designing historical exhibits, sponsoring seminars and events, and supporting Agency education and training initiatives.
