Naval Criminal Investigative Service

Hey there, kiddo! You might have heard of a show called NCIS on TV, right? Well, there is a real-life version of it too called the Naval Criminal Investigative Service or NCIS for short.

NCIS is a group of investigators that looks into crimes that happen on U.S Navy bases or involve members of the Navy and Marine Corps. These investigations might be for things like theft, fraud, or even murder.

The job of NCIS is to help make sure that everyone in the Navy and Marine Corps is safe and that justice is served if someone breaks the law. They work hard to solve crimes and catch the people who committed them.

Just like on TV, NCIS agents use lots of different tools to help them solve crimes. They might dust for fingerprints, collect DNA samples, or even use computers to track down suspects.

So, to sum it up, NCIS is a group of investigators that helps keep Navy and Marine Corps members safe by investigating crimes and catching the people who did them. They are kind of like real-life superheroes!
