→KGB in the US 1921-1943: technically Alger Hiss was not a KGB Agent, but rather a GRU Agent

While as a purely technical matter, the KGB was not the only organization seeking subversion and overthrow of legitmate government from the early days of the Workers Revolution. [[Alger Hiss]] for example, was an agent of Soviet Military Intelligence (GRU) and not srtrictly speaking the KGB. This has led to some confusion even today because strictly and technically speaking, Alger Hiss was not a KGB Agent, he was a GRU Agent. Below is a table lising eight differenct Soviet intelligence entities operating in the United States between the period of 1921 and 1943.
