Documents / FOIA release
This Central Intelligence Agency memorandum for the record from Herbert Scoville, Jr., Assistant Director for Scientific Intelligence, sets out which offices handle non-conventional types of air vehicles. It rescinds an earlier memorandum on the same subject dated 14 June 1954. It makes ASD responsible for all surveillance of available information on the subject, with the other OSI divisions providing technical consultation. ASD will also keep the OSI files, so the other divisions must forward their files to ASD and stop filing on the subject.
Read from the scan by GLM-OCR; expect the odd misread word.
