Central Intelligence Agency · 1976-06-25 · 1 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This short, heavily redacted Central Intelligence Agency memorandum is dated 25 June 1976. It records a meeting that day with the Secretary of ORD about whether that office might be interested in a UFO case. The writer gave the Secretary copies of earlier memoranda, and the Secretary said ORD might have continuing interest once it had evaluated the material. The Secretary asked for more information on an unnamed system and wanted ORD's interest kept low profile until then. A TWX was sent requesting the information.
