	CNN.com - Pentagon runs clandestine intelligence-gathering infrastructure - Jan 23, 2005
		WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency since 2002 has run a beefed-up intelligence-gathering and support unit that has authority to operate clandestinely anywhere in the world where it is ordered to go in support of anti-terrorism and counter-terrorism missions, a senior defense official said Sunday.
		He confirmed the SSB was formed after the September 11, 2001, attacks "to have as much flexibility as possible" and in response to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's ongoing concerns expressed at the highest levels of the department that the Pentagon did not have the capability to gather intelligence in the field on its own.
		SSB personnel are on these missions to gather intelligence, but he notes that special forces personnel want everyone on their teams to be fully capable in all special forces combat skills, which the DIA personnel might not be.
