Postal Inspection Service  

Definición

  • The U.S. Postal Inspection Service traces its history to 1772, when Postmaster General Benjamin Franklin created the position of surveyor to assist him in regulating and auditing postal functions. In 1801 the title was changed to special agent and in 1830 the investigative functions of the agents were centralized as the Office of Instructions and Mail Depredations even though the agents continued to be assigned to specific geographic areas of the country.
