Assessment centers were first conceptualized by the German High Command in World War I to select officers with exceptional command or military abilities. The British Secret Service borrowed a page from Hitler's book, maintaining an estate in the English countryside for training and evaluating agents who would be sent to work behind enemy lines. Camp X, their espionage school, provided a realistic setting for training. The estate was staffed with native German- speakers, and potential agents were given assignments requiring interaction with the staff. Potential agents' ability to maintain their cover while fulfilling their assignments was evaluated during their stay. On June 13, 1941, President Roosevelt created the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) to coordinate the U.S. intelligence effort against Nazi Germany. Roosevelt named William "Wild Bill" Donovan, a Wall Street lawyer and World War I hero, to head the office with a handful of agents. Because they had no experience in espionage, the Americans relied on the British procedures and even trained at Camp X. Shortly afterward, the OSS founded its own version of Camp X in the Virginia countryside, and named it Station S.
