Changes

Perhaps the most famous case of defection from the US to the USSR in the Cold War was the flight of [[William H. Martin]] and [[Bernon F. Mitchell]]. The pair of [[mathematician]]s, who worked for the [[NSA]], had access to [[top secret]] information and were in a homosexual relationship.<ref>http://www.west.net/~antipas/books/homo_revolution/hr_03.html</ref> Their sudden flight from the USA through Mexico and Cuba to the USSR was an action completely unexpected by the NSA and the US government, and caused great distress in the government, especially with their trusted access to the information. Their defection led to major changes with how government agencies monitor their employees. A 1991 Pentagon study of paraphilia (kinky or bizarre sexual behaviors) issued by the Defense Security Service and used today in military circles counts Martin and Mitchell among a group of "publicly known homosexuals" who betrayed their country.
