This Clinton Presidential Library file from the National Security Council holds Presidential Determination 95-45, signed September 29, 1995.

It came out of the lawsuits Kasza v. Browner and Frost v. Perry. The file also includes Anthony Lake's decision memo, Secretary Sheila Widnall's declaration claiming the military and state secrets privilege, and a Deputy Secretary of Defense recommendation.
