The Federal Bureau of Investigation, short F.B.I., is the intelligence and security service of the U.S., which operates inside and outside of the U.S.


Motto: "Fidelity, Bravery, Integrity"


Established in: "1908"


The F.B.I. Physical Fitness Test is a test that agents have to take several times throughout the hiring process. Therefore, if you are interested in joining the Federal Bureau of Investigations, you should be in top shape. Candidates who would like to join the F.B.I. hostage rescue teams have much higher physical standards.


FBI Oath: I [name] do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.
