By 1940, it was clear to President Franklin D. Roosevelt that there was an extraordinary amount of German and Soviet espionage taking place in the US. On March 22, 1940, Roosevelt by executive order conferred presidential recognition for the first time on the military classification system. To bolster this act he used a 1938 law regarding secret maps.
