In 1942 the United States Army took over Arlington Hall Junior College and established its Signal Intelligence Service (SIS) at the former campus. The SIS had responsibility for cryptoanalysis of intercepted enemy messages, development of codes and ciphers for the Army, and production of Army cipher machines. The SIS scored several significant intelligence success during World War II, including the breaking of the Japanese military and diplomatic cipher systems. This work provided crucial intelligence information to Allied leaders. Army intelligence agencies remained at Arlington Hall Station until 1989, when they were relocated to Fort Belvoir, Virginia. At that date Arlington Hall Station was turned over to the Department of State for use as a training center.
