When people fly into Dulles International Airport in Washington, DC, very few know why it has that name let alone know anything about the man behind it. During WW II Brigadier General William J. “Wild Bill” Donovan ran the Office of Strategic Services ran secret operations all over the world, from Asia to Europe hiring and recruiting civilians and active duty military as covert operatives. The experiences of the OSS saw the need to create a specialized organization that could handle intelligence gathering and covert operations with plausible deniability. The successor of the OSS, the Central Intelligence Agency continued that legacy with very mixed and controversial results. Written and Hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.
