Initially, ONI was tasked with collecting information on the characteristics and weaponry of foreign vessels, charting foreign passages, rivers, or other bodies of water, and touring overseas fortifications, industrial plants, and shipyards. In anticipation of the <a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States">United States</a> entry into <a href="/wiki/World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a>, ONI's responsibilities expanded to include <a href="/wiki/Espionage" title="Espionage">espionage</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sabotage" title="Sabotage">sabotage</a>, and all manner of information on the U.S. Navy's potential adversaries. The plan contemplated obtaining information by both overt and covert means, and, in the fall of 1916, the first branch office (a small undercover unit) was established in <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> under the supervision of the ONI. Heavy reliance was placed on reserve, active duty, and civilian operatives, many of the latter serving voluntarily and without pay. Rapid demobilization and the desire to return to normalcy after World War I saw investigative activity reduced to a virtual standstill. In early 1926, initiatives were undertaken to organize special groups of volunteer reserve intelligence officers who were envisioned to obtain information on persons and activities that might threaten the naval establishment, as well as provide a cadre of trained personnel in the event of a national emergency.<sup id="cite_ref-Manual_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Manual-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the early and mid-1930s, the development of an independent professional investigative capability within the Navy was being nurtured. In <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington, D.C.</a>, the first civilian agent was employed in 1936 on a verbal basis and paid by personal check of the <a href="/wiki/Director_of_Naval_Intelligence,_U.S._Navy" title="Director of Naval Intelligence, U.S. Navy">Director of Naval Intelligence</a>. He was followed by a small handful of civilian special agents who were seeded throughout the naval districts beginning in 1936, although by September 1937 they numbered only 14 nationwide.<sup id="cite_ref-Manual_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Manual-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In June 1939, <a href="/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt" title="Franklin D.

By the fall of 1940, selective call-up of intelligence reservists for investigative and counterintelligence duties was undertaken on a broad scale and following entry into <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, the Navy's investigative arm was staffed almost exclusively by reserve officers. Their primary tasks related to personnel security inquiries, sabotage, and espionage cases, investigation of Japanese activities in the United States, and war fraud matters. A peak was reached in 1943 when over 97,000 separate investigations were conducted by what was known as the "Naval Intelligence Service."<sup id="cite_ref-Manual_4-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Manual-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> After World War II, there was again a general demobilization, resulting in only a small corps of civilian special agents being retained.

Workload, manpower, and jurisdiction in investigations and counterintelligence broadened following the Korean conflict. Several significant changes in organization and policy occurred during the 1950s and 1960s, as well as refinements in mission, which culminated in the establishment of the Naval Investigative Service (NIS) in February 1966. In the early 1970s, an NIS special agent was stationed on <a href="/wiki/USS_Intrepid_(CV-11)" title="USS Intrepid (CV-11)">USS <i>Intrepid</i></a> for six months. This marked the beginning of the "Deployment Afloat" program, now called the Special Agent Afloat program, which deploys special agents for year-long assignments aboard carrier battle groups and amphibious readiness groups. In 1972, background investigations were transferred from NIS to the newly formed <a href="/wiki/Defense_Security_Service" class="mw-redirect" title="Defense Security Service">Defense Investigative Service</a> (DIS), allowing NIS to give more attention to criminal investigations and <a href="/wiki/Counter-intelligence" class="mw-redirect" title="Counter-intelligence">counter-intelligence</a>.

On November 15, 1985, NIS was re-designated as the Naval Security and Investigative Command (NSIC) and broadened its missions to include management of the DON Security Program. These programs included naval information, physical, and personnel security; adjudication for security clearances; and Navy law enforcement and physical security.

These directorates are responsible for outlining the goals and objectives of NCIS relating to their functional area through the Program Direction Document. The executive assistant directors exercise direction and supervision of their Program Direction Document through the three field directorates. The EADs also advise the deputy director of operations on the three field directorate executive assistant directors' performance in meeting the outlined goals and objectives. </p><p>The field directorates are the Atlantic Operations Directorate, the Pacific Operations Directorate, and the Global Operations Directorate. </p><p>The geographic Atlantic Operations and Pacific Operations directorates are divided into field offices, each headed by a Special Agent in Charge (SAC), while the functional Global Operations Directorate is divided into field offices and field operational support elements, headed by Special Agents in Charge or division chiefs. The SAC/division chief is responsible for all operational, investigative, and administrative activities within their geographical/functional area of responsibility. They exercise leadership in the geographic implementation of NCIS' goals and objectives through the direction and supervision of Assistant Special Agents in Charge (ASAC) and Supervisory Special Agents (SSA). In field offices with only one ASAC, the ASAC is the Chief Operations Officer of the field office, responsible for the day-to-day oversight and management of its activities. In field offices with multiple ASACs, the ASACs serve as the heads of specific functions within the field office (e.g. ASAC of Criminal Investigations or ASAC of Atlantic Operations). The field office headquarters also has specialized teams, headed by Supervisory Special Agents, ready to support the field office's subordinate units by dispatching experienced Special Agents and/or civilian investigators to assist in investigations if a prolonged investigation is required or the investigative resources required exceeds the subordinate unit's capabilities. Usually, the senior-most Special Agent of the field team is designated as the Senior Field Agent who may also have some operational and/or administrative responsibilities. </p><p>The geographic field offices are divided into NCIS Resident Agencies (NCISRA) and NCIS Resident Units (NCISRU). NCISRA's are headed by Supervisory Special Agents (designated as Resident Agents in Charge) who supervise all sworn Special Agents and civilian personnel assigned to the NCISRA. Depending on the size or location of the NCISRA, the Resident Agent in Charge may also supervise other Supervisory Special Agents who serve as team leaders, responsible for a specific investigative/operational function within the NCISRA (e.g. SSA of Counter-Terrorism). Some NCISRAs are further divided into NCISRUs, which are small units consisting of only one or two Special Agents (designated as Resident Agents) who report directly to the Resident Agent in Charge of the "parent NCISRA." In NCISRU which is staffed by multiple Special Agents, the senior-most Special Agent is designated as the Senior Resident Agent and may also have some operational and/or administrative responsibilities. NCIS Special Agent Afloat duty posts are also classified as NCISRUs (e.g. NCISRU <a href="/wiki/USS_George_H.W._Bush" title="USS George H.W. Bush">USS <i>George H.W. Bush</i></a>).

A special agent assigned to a carrier must be skilled in general criminal investigations including crime scene examination, expert interview techniques, and the use of proactive law enforcement procedures to stop criminal activity before it occurs.

In April 1971, a special agent was assigned to a deployed carrier for six months with the designation of SAA. By 1978, SAA personnel were assigned to each operational aircraft carrier in the U. S. Navy for a one-year assignment. In 1986, a trial began where two Special Agents Afloat were assigned to aircraft carriers to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of having two agents assigned full-time while deployed, one focusing on law enforcement/criminal investigations and one on foreign counterintelligence.
