Postwar intelligence careers is a working face gallery of Ritchie Boys whose profiles or essays on this wiki document continued intelligence work after World War II — for example U.S. Army G-2 / Army Intelligence, OSS/CIA, or related national-security service.

This is not a complete roster. Many veterans returned to civilian life; others stayed in government work that is not yet cited clearly on their pages. Cards are added only when a source already on this site supports the postwar intelligence link.
