The Counter Intelligence Corps (U.S.Army CIC) was a World War 2 intelligence agency within the United States Army consisting of highly trained special agents. The entry of the United States into World War 2 in December 1941 brought an expansion. On 13 December 1941, the Adjutant General of the Army issued an order naming it the Counter Intelligence Corps. A complement of 543 officers and 4,431 non-commissioned agents was authorized . The CIC recruited men with legal, police, or other investigative backgrounds, and particularly looked for men with foreign language skills. As most CIC agents in the field (as well as Military Intelligence Service in Europe) held only non- commissioned officer rank - corporals and various grades of sergeant - they wore either plain clothes, or uniforms without badges of rank; in place of rank insignia, and so as not to be perceived as privates, agents typically wore officer \"U.S.\" collar insignia.
