==History==
Public Law 81-36, 2 April 1949, originally established this position as the ''Under Secretary of Defense'', however Public Law 81-2 16, August 10, 1949, a.k.a. the 1949 Amendments to the National Security Act of 1947, changed the title to ''Deputy Secretary of Defense''. Former Assistant to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Stephen Early, became the first officer holder when he was sworn-in on May 2, 1949.〔Department of Defense Key Officials 1947–2015: p. 15.〕
Public Law 92-596, October 27, 1972, established a ''Second Deputy Secretary of Defense'' position, with both deputies performing duties as prescribed by the Secretary of Defense. The second deputy position was not filled until December 1975. Robert F. Ellsworth, serving from December 23, 1975 until 10 January 1977, was the only one to ever hold that office. Public Law 95-140, 21 October 1977, the law establishing two ''Under Secretaries of Defense'', abolished the second deputy position.〔
