Camp Ritchie (the Military Intelligence Training Center, or MITC) was a U.S. Army intelligence school at Cascade in Washington County, Maryland, during World War II. From 1942 it trained interrogators, order-of-battle specialists, photo interpreters, and related personnel. Graduates are commonly called Ritchie Boys.
The camp’s classes are listed as Class 1 through Class 31. Individual soldier articles use those class numbers in the infobox. Shared team codes are listed under Category:Assignments.
