Documents / FOIA release
This is a CIA-released letter dated August 19, 1953 from Philip G. Strong to Dr. Samuel A. Goudsmit of Brookhaven National Laboratory. Strong thanks Goudsmit for his letter of 14 August about flying saucers and says Goudsmit's reply to a Mr. Kirsch is exactly what is needed in the present context. He also notes that Ted Nordbeck gave Goudsmit all the material that could be found on Jungk. The release contains two copies of the letter.

## Dear Sam: Thanks very much for your letter of 14 August about flying saucers. I think that your reply to Mr. Kirsch is exactly what is needed in present context. Ted Nordbeck I know, gave you all the material that we could find in regard to Jungk. I am sorry it took so long but my people apparently had difficulty prying the information loose. I hope that the information given you was of some use. Best regards. Sincerely, 2 151 Philip G. Strong Dr. Samuel A. Goudsalt Brookhaven National Laboratory Associated Universities, Inc. Upton, L.I.
