Documents / FOIA release
This Office of the Secretary of Defense FOIA release (22-F-0863) collects internal emails from June 2021 to February 2022 among Under Secretary Ronald Moultrie, David Taylor, Neill Tipton and other intelligence and security staff. They cover coordinating the ODNI preliminary UAP report released June 25, 2021, and a Deputy Secretary Hicks memo on formalizing the Navy's UAP Task Force. They also cover a 28-member SSCI and SASC briefing, establishing the AOIMSG, and a search for a UAP director candidate.
The Department takes UAP seriously, and is committed to improving its observation and reporting of UAP. To that end, Deputy Secretary of Defense Hicks issued the attached memorandum directing the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence & Security to provide her with a plan to formalize the mission currently performed by the Navy's UAP Task Force. FYI, OSD Public Affairs will be sharing the attached statement with the media later this afternoon. After the Deputy receives and approves this plan, the Department will notify Congress of her decision. In the meantime, Department representatives are available to brief you on DoD equities in the ODNI's UAP report upon your request." V/r, (b)(6) (b)(6) 10
