kek, that post was tremendous. everything was going crazy, and then… this stunning prose
National Security history. In 1938 it transferred from direction of the President to direction of the Joint Chiefs…
"The President remained the sole national security coordinator until 1938, when the prewar crisis
began to build in intensity, presenting numerous and wide-ranging threats to the inadequately
armed United States. The State Department, in reaction to reports of Axis activities in Latin
America, proposed that interdepartmental conferences be held with War and Navy Department
representatives. In April 1938, Secretary of State Cordell Hull, in a letter to President Franklin
Roosevelt, formally proposed the creation of a standing committee made up of the second ranking
officers of the three departments, for purposes of liaison and coordination."
