Just a minor nitpick: The intelligence community had nothing to do with the manhattan project; work on nuclear weapons was initiated by direct presidential executive order, creating an entirely new committee for nuclear weapons research, under the control of the US Army (the Department of the Army, the Army’s intelligence service, had little to do with the program itself).
