This is in response to your Freedom oflnformation Act (FOIA) request for "History,
OSI, 19 July 1948 - 30 June 1950 in its entirety." We received your request on 21 September
2010 and AFOSI FOIA tracking #2010-FOIA-00500 was assigned to your request.
We identified the History of the Office of Special Investigation Report as being
responsive to your request; however portions of the information requested are exempt from
disclosure to you. We have inserted notations on the attached documents to identify the portions
deleted and the reasons for doing so. The notations are explained as follows:
a. "b6" indicates the withholding of information contained in personnel,
medical, and similar files or information that applies to a particular individual for which we have
determined there exists a privacy interest that generally and categorically outweighs any public
interest in disclosure that the Freedom of Information Act would authorize. As recognized in
federal statute and case law, the type of information that this generally requires to be withheld
includes the names of government employees and law enforcement agents; personal data
information such as Social Security Numbers, signatures, personal addresses (including email),
and telephone numbers; medical and criminal history information; and most identifying
information on persons forward deployed, overseas, or assigned to sensitive or routinely
deployable units. The authority for this exemption may be found in 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(6) and in
the federal court cases interpreting that statute.
If you interpret this response as an adverse action, you may appeal it to the Secretary of
the Air Force and it must be postmarked within 60 days from the date of this letter. Reference
AFOSI FOIA #2010-FOIA-00500 and include in the appeal your reasons for reconsideration and
attach a copy of this letter. Your letter and envelope should be clearly marked "Freedom of
Information Act Appeal." Address your letter as fo1lows:
