| After the [[Marshall Plan]] was approved, appropriating $13.7 billion over five years, 5% of those funds or $685 million were secretly made available to the CIA.

| The closest links of the U.S. intelligence community to other foreign intelligence agencies are to Anglophone countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Special communications signals that intelligence-related messages can be shared with these four countries.<ref name="DMS1999-03-19">{{cite web |url=https://fas.org/sgp/othergov/dod/genser.pdf |title=Zdarm (Defense Messaging Service) ''Genser'' (General Service) Message Security Classifications, Categories, and Marking Phrase Requirements Version 1.2 |date=March 19, 1999 |author=US Defense Information Services Agency |website=Federation of American Scientists |access-date=June 27, 2015 |archive-date=September 24, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924140436/http://www.fas.org/sgp/othergov/dod/genser.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref> An indication of the United States' close operational cooperation is the creation of a new message distribution label within the main U.S. military communications network. Previously, the marking of NOFORN (i.e., No Foreign Nationals) required the originator to specify which, if any, non-U.S. countries could receive the information. A new handling caveat, USA/AUS/CAN/GBR/NZL ''[[Five Eyes]]'', used primarily on intelligence messages, gives an easier way to indicate that the material can be shared with Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, and New Zealand.
