Documents / FOIA release
This Central Intelligence Agency memorandum for the record is dated 1956 and was signed by Herbert Scoville, Jr., Assistant Director for Scientific Intelligence. It rescinds a 14 June 1954 memorandum on office responsibilities for non-conventional types of air vehicles. From then on, ASD would monitor all available information on the subject and keep the Office of Scientific Intelligence files on it. Other OSI divisions were to give ASD technical consulting help, send it their files and stop their own filing on the subject.
