The Strategic Services Unit was an intelligence agency of the United States government that existed in the immediate post–World War II period.
 It was created from the Secret Intelligence and Counter-Espionage branches of the wartime Office of Strategic Services.
William Joseph ("Wild Bill") Donovan (January 1, 1883 – February 8, 1959) was an American soldier, lawyer, intelligence officer and diplomat.
 Donovan is best remembered as the wartime head of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the precursor to the Central Intelligence Agency, during World War II.
 He is also known as the "Father of American Intelligence" and the "Father of Central Intelligence".
 "The Central Intelligence Agency regards Donovan as its founding father," according to journalist Evan Thomas in a 2011 "Vanity Fair" profile.
 The lobby of CIA headquarters, in Langley, Virginia, now features a statue of Donovan.
 Thomas observed that Donovan's "exploits are utterly improbable but by now well documented in declassified wartime records that portray a brave, noble, headlong, gleeful, sometimes outrageous pursuit of action and skulduggery."
