from the Recon pigeons. Check out the bit about "mom at home".
Hi, kids! I'm Harry Recon, and this is my twin sister, Aerial. My parents named me after President Harry Truman, who created the Central Intelligence Agency when he signed the National Security Act on Sept. 18, 1947. Aerial is named for our love of flying. We love being in the air because its so much fun and we take great pictures from up there, as well. We love flying so much that Mom has a hard time keeping us on the ground to do our homework and our chores!
My family has always supported the Agency and its predecessor, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), roosting wherever it was camped and keeping an eye out in defense of our country, too.
In 1961, when the Agency moved from downtown Washington, DC, to Langley, Virginia, we naturally followed. We roost near the area where the CIA K9 unit trains and rests. We have a great time playing with the dogs and taking their pictures!
Well, I've got to go. I'm going to get some flying in before Mom has us do our homework. I'm going to let Aerial tell you more about our family history.
Hi, boys and girls! Well, you're probably curious about the cameras Harry and I have around our necks. These cameras were handed down to us by our two great aunts, Jasmine and Sadie. They were part of the Bavarian Pigeon Corps that flew over the International Photographic Exhibition in Dresden in 1909. Of course the idea of using pigeons for aerial photography in a military setting never really got off the ground, so to speak. However, our aunts and the other pigeons did provide wonderful postcards for the people at the Exhibition. Mom has some of those postcards hanging on the roost wall, and they are pretty.
My dad says that we Recons have been in the intelligence operations business throughout US history:
* With Paul Revere on his midnight ride.
* With Virginia Hall as she arrived in France during World War II.
* Winging along side the U-2 as it took off to gather overhead pictures.
As you can see, my family has seen a lot of exciting moments in history!
The history of intelligence, the people and the intelligence gathering methods are probably among the most fascinating areas of history. Go to Operation History to learn more about some of these great historical figures in this special world. Harry and I also put together an Intelligence Book List for kids of all ages. Like our CIA K9 Corps friends always say, you have to study and work hard to be a "top dog" in any field.
Well, time for me to take my camera and carry on the family tradition of taking pictures! Check out some of our postcards of the Intelligence Community!

Intelligence is Cool!
Just say no!
Being an intelligence officer for a spy agency, much like anything else in life, comes with a lot of responsibility. We are asked to collect and review difficult information and make many important recommendations. Many people's lives and even the safety of our country may depend on the information we give our policymakers. It doesn't take too much intelligence to understand that, in order to do our jobs, we have to be in the best mental shape--and that includes being drug-free.

There's even a games section which no doubt will prepare kids who liked Dan Brown's novels to bust that code.
