==Cincinnati Office History==
The first field office in [[Cincinnati]] opened in 1913 under [[Special Agent in Charge]] Hinton G. Clabaugh. Over the next few years the investigated everything from interstate prostitution to potential espionage during World War I. In 1920 [[Cincinnati]] became one of the Bureau’s eight field divisions until 1926 when the division was moved to [[Columbus, Ohio|Columbus]]. In 1929 the Cincinnati office reopened under [[Special Agent In Charge|SAIC]] L.C. Schilder. At that time the division handled all of Ohio and parts of Kentucky and Indiana. When the Bereau opened field offices in [[Indianapolis]] in 1934 and [[Cleveland]] in 1935 the division's jurisdiction became limited. During [[World War II]] the division helped search for spies, draft evaders and enemy aliens. One of the division's weirdest cases was in 1945 when a newspaper boy became curious and picked up a highly explosive thermite bomb that was on exhibit at the Gibson Hotel and dropped it out of the window. Thankfully the bomb did not ignite but scared pedestrians. Agents and local emergency authorities responded. Skipping to past [[9/11]] like most of the other field offices [[Cincinnati]] switched their focus to helping prevent terrorist attacks from happening.
