In 1933, our name changed to the Division of Investigation and, finally, in 1935, we became what we are today -- the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Through each of these name changes, we also changed badges.

We also carry a special wallet that has our picture on it. We use this wallet to identify ourselves to people when we are working. We call it a credential. Here are two different credentials. Just click on the pictures to print them out and then make your own special identification wallet. Don't forget to put you picture on it.
