  Term paper on The History of counterespionage in the United States
And despite the fact that espionage as well as counterespionage contemporarily reflects an uncharacteristically crucial portion of the virtually all warfare, this is not something that is entirely new to the segment of warfare.
The historical relevance of espionage and counterespionage, moreover, is something that is accentuated quite strongly when considering that even such socio-historically renowned names as Benjamin Franklin, John Jay, and Washington tend to yield relativity to espionage/counterespionage activities typically adhered to within wartime.
The prime character trait that set apart these men from their lesser known contemporaries tends to be the fact that they have come to be exceptionally associated with ensuring victories that were of utmost essentiality to bringing about the existence of America as it stands today.

They gained access to information about U.S. counterespionage efforts, plans for atomic bomb production, and military strategies during the Korean War and were able to pass this information on to the Soviets.

 The strange case of accused US counterspy Robert Hanssen
The most notorious case was that of Aldrich Ames, the head of CIA Russian counterintelligence, who was imprisoned for life in 1994 for spying for the Soviet Union and Russia from 1985 to 1994.
It is ironic, and perhaps politically significant, that Hanssen, like Ames, is reported to have made his first approach to Soviet intelligence in 1985, at the height of the Reagan years and the resurgence of Cold War demagogy that accompanied them.
Government prosecutors allege that one of Hanssen's first acts of counterespionage was to hand over the names of three KGB agents secretly working for the Americans—two of whom were later executed in Moscow.
