We were looking for the plans and the intentions of our enemies.
There are a lot of ways to collect intelligence.
Cameras was my preferred method of collection.
My name is Jonna Mendez.
I'm the former chief of disguise at CIA.
And before that, I was a photo operations officer at CIA.
There is an interesting history of using homing pigeons to collect intelligence.
We had learned that we could put harnesses and cameras on the pigeons.
They were very, very small.
The combined weight of the harness and the camera was one and a half ounces.
