Spent the day researching David K.
E. Bruce at the Virginia Museum of History and Culture. Very impressive career. He had been involved in Virgina politics, in the SWW headed secret intel for the OSS and headed the office in London. He went on to be ambassador to France, Germany & UK. #intelhistory
