The Defense Investigative Service was established by the Secretary of 
Defense, effective January 1, 1972. The Service is chartered by 
Department of Defense Directive 5105.42.
    The Service consists of a Headquarters, three Operations Centers, 
the Capital Area, and four regional offices with subordinate field 
offices and resident agencies located in the 50 States and Puerto Rico; 
the Office of Industrial Security International--Europe, in Brussels, 
Belgium, and Mannheim, Germany; and the Office of Industrial Security 
International--Far East, in Camp Zama, Japan.
    The Service conducts all personnel security investigations for 
Department components and, when authorized, also conducts investigations 
for other U.S. Government activities. These include investigation of 
allegations of subversive affiliations, adverse suitability information, 
or any other situation that requires resolution to complete the 
personnel security investigation.
    The Service is responsible for the three major programs involving 
industrial security: the Defense Industrial Security Program; the Key 
Assets Protection Program; and the Arms, Ammunition and Explosives 
Security Program.
    The Service also manages the Defense Clearance and Investigations 
Index, a centralized listing of all Defense components investigative 
files, and security clearance information pertaining to Department of 
Defense personnel.
