INADEQUACIES OF AFSAC: 63/36 

lq The COMINT activities described in AFSAC: 63/36 are inadequat@ 

to p~rmit fulfillment of assigned responsibilitieBo This inadequacy is 

occasioned by the failure to provide tor AFSA activities outside th~ 

continental United States 9 Specific responsibilities which cannot b~ 

fulfilled are outlined below: 

INTERCEPT AND PRCCESSING a.ESPONSIBILl.TIES 

2u AnIJY9 Navy» and Air Force intercept and processing rospono!= 

bilitiee cannot be adequate:cy- fulfilled unless Service units have timlf1ly 

access to AFSA9 which is their principal source or information regarding

)o A.FSA intercept and processing responsibilities cannot bo 

adoquately fulfilled if au AFSA uni ts ere too remote trcm their aoureea ot
