plan   to   upgrade   the   DIA  portion   o£    the   NSA   Secure   Telephone 
System.      This   plan   included    the   possible   integration  of 
the  AF/IH   secure   voice   network   with   the   DIA  portion  of   the 
NSA   Secure   Telephone   System.

of  communications  and  ADP  capabilities.     On  14  December 
1973,   JCS,    DIA,    and  the  Air  Staff  validated  the  operational 
use   of   AN/GYQ-21 (V)    with   standard   WWMCCS   hardware   and

360/40   to   a   government -owned    IBM   360/50    in   April    1974. 
As   executive   agent   for   MODS   and   SENTIHEL  AIDES,    PACAF 
continued   to  perform   software  maintenance   and  minor 
enhancements    through   a   contract  with    IBM.

^f     Computer  support   to  the   TIPI   DC/SR  CAT  II  Teat  was 
provided  by   the    IDSS   contractor    (Computer   System 
Corporation).      All    IDHS   contractor   support   was   phased 
out   by    1   July    1973.      The   primary   user   of  TAC/IDHS   was 
the    4B0    Reconnaissance   Technical   Group    (HTG) .      However, 
effective   IS  June   1974,    the    480   BTG  was   deactivated   and 
replaced  by  the   9th   Tactical    Intelligence   Squadron    (TIS). 
IDHS  support  continued  for  the  9th  TIS,   although  at  a 
reduced  manpower  level.     The  IBH  360/40  has  been  retained 
in  the  9th  TIS.
ggl     During   FV    74,    the   visual   Analysis   Sub-system    (VASS! 
replacement  was   completed.      The    ISM    370/153   was   selected 
to    replace   the   VASS   IBM    360/50    and    the   SAC  Operational 
Flanning   Staff    (SACOPS]    UNIVAC    1219   and   IBM   350/44.      The 
ISM   370/1S8   was    installed  on    22   December    1973.      VASS  was 
declared  operational  on   2   January   1974   and   SACOPS  became 
operational   on   1   June   1974.         All   necessary   planning   and 
approval   documents,    including   the   Data  Automation 
Requirement,   were   reviewed   and   coordinated   through   the 
Air   Staff  by  AFIS/INO.      Consolidation   of   VASS  and   SACOPS 
support  on  one  machine   represented  a   dollar   savings.

fB     The   IBM   360/50   at   Schierstein   Compound,    West   Germany, 
continued   to   support   the   Intelligence    Research   Center    (IRC!, 
the   Directorate   of  Targets,    the   497   RTG    (all    located   at 
Schierstein),    and   Hg   USAFE   Intelligence   at   Rarest© in  AB. 
In   response   to   a   USAFE   statement   of   requirements,    AFIS/IND 
expedited   the  design,    fabrication,    and    installation  of    a 
van-mounted  AN/GYQ-3HV)    Relocatable   Terminal   Support   System 
(RTSSJ .  The   system  was   delivered   to   the  Schierstein 
Compound  in  April   1974.     Training  for  the  operators  was 
completed  in  May. 
0  A  software  contract  for  Storage  and  Retrieval
Processor    (SARP)    software   was    signed   with   SunSter-Ramo 
AFIS/IND   through   the   Home   Air   Development   Center.      The 
software   will   provide   the   RTSS   with   basic   application 
programmer    file   management    facilities.      All   software    is 
to  be   delivered  by   February    1975.      The   RTSS   is    not 
scheduled   to  be  moved   to   Ramstein   AS,    but  will   remain   at 
Schierstein  Compound   for   continuing   research   and 
development  work   such   as    interfacing    to  AUTODIN  and 
developing  AN/GVQ-21 <V)     software    for    the    EUCOM   AIDSS 
computer    (to  be   installed   at    Ramstein   AS   in  FY   75). 
IBHS  "TRAINING 
■I  AFIS/IND  continues  to  support  the  Armed  Forces  Air 
Intelligence  Training  Center  [AFAITO  IDHS  program  by 
providing  external  assistance  funds  for  IBM  contractor 
work.  This  support  provided  additional  route  search  and 
CRT  display  capabilities  on  the  IBM  360/40  computer  for 
students.  AFAITC  also  continued  to  provide  IDHS  Mobile 
Training  Teams  (MTT>  to  the  field  on  the  Formatted  File 
System,  Modular  Data  System,  and  the  Machine- Independent 
Data  Management  System. 
f/f  As  each  AN/GYQ-21 (V)  computer  is  installed,  Sunker- 
Raroo  Corporation  provides  a  three-week  prog rammer /analyst 
and  ojierator  course.  In  December  1973,  the  DIA  requested 
the   Department  of  the  Air  Force  to  assume   the   responsibility
as    the    Sinale   Service    Trainiw   SuoDort   Manacer    for 
AN/GYQ-21  (V!    systems.  AFIS/tND   has    beer,   assigned    this 
and    specified   coccr.ands  ,    and    separate   operating   agencies 
for    their   training    requirements.      Based   on    these    require- 
ments,   AFIS/IND  will   establish   an   on-site   XTT   capability 
(through   HQ  ATC]    with   AFAITC.      It   is    anticipated   that 
the   KTT   instruction   will   be    available   during    the    fourth 
quarter  of  FY   75. 
DATA   PROCESSING    STATIONS 
ggf     On    29   October    1973,    the   DIA   requested   that   USAF 
assume    logistical    support   responsibilities    for   all   DOD 
AN/GYQ-2UV!    Data   Processing   Stations.  ACS/I   designated 
AFIS/IND    the   office   of   primary   responsibility.      Coordina- 
tion  with   the   Air   Force    Logistics   Command   resulted   in   the 
Warner-Robins   Air   Logistics    Center    {ALO    being   assigned 
Single   Service   Logistics   Manager    (SSLSM)    responsibilities. 
The   SSLSM  will   develop   an    Integrated   Logistics   Support

AIR    FORCE    INTELLIGENCE    SECUREFAX    SYSTEM     'AF1SS! 
flW      The   AFISS   equipment    is    the    DACOM,    Inc,    Model    412 
Secure   Digital   Document   Facsimile   Transceiver    (Securefax). 
It.    is   designed   to  quickly   transfer    letter   size    (up   to 
3    1/2"    x   14")    documents     (up    to   SI/SAO    level)    between 
offices    using   normal  AOTOVOJ3    lines.      AFIS/IND   identified 
this   equipment   as   a   potential   enhancement   to   IDHS. 
£■]    In  November   1973,   AFIS/IND  began  efforts  to  install 
Securefax   devices   at   the    Rorae  Air   Development  Center, 
the   Air   Force   Foreign   Technology   Division,    AFIS/IND   in 
the   Pentagon,    and   the   North   American  Air   Defense  Command 
lone   in   the   NORAD   Cheyenne   Mountain   Complex   and   another 
in    the   NORAD  J-2   at   Ent  AFB) .      TEMPEST   testing,    a   security 
analysis,    was   performed   during  Harch    1974;    and   in   May    1974, 
DIA  approved   using   the   Securefax   device    for   SI/SAO  data 
MB     Planning   is   completed   and   approval    is   anticipated 
to   expand   the   AFISS   to   include   the   new   Hq   MAC   Intelligence 
Warning   Center   at   Scott  AFB,    two   devices    for   Hq   USAFSS 
(one   at   Kelly  AFB   and  one   at   the   Security   Service   liaison 
office   at   Fort   G.    Meade),    and  another   at   Friendship  Annex 
for  APIS/INI.      These  sites  are  scheduled  to  be  opera- 
tional early  in  1975.      Future  plans  include  installation 
at  a  Securefax  device  at  Hg  SAC  and  three  at  USAFE 
(one  at  Samstein  AS,   another  in  the  Schierstein  Compound,
and    a    third    in    the    Soerfink    Ccnplex).      TAC,    IPAC,    ALCOM, 
and    the   NGRAD  Alternate  Command   Post    (ALCQP1    are   also 
scheduled    for    inclusion   to    the  AFISS. 
|g£    The   DIA  and   the  Army  and   N_avy    IDH   Systems  plan  to 
install    Securefax  devices   compatible  with  the  ATISS.      The 
DIA   installations  will    include    the    National  Military 
Indications   Center,    Arlington    Hall  Station,    and  the 
Cafritz,    Hoffman,    and  Pomponio   Buildings. 
HI     AFIS/IND  has   accomplished   the   coordination  and 
actions   necessary   to  arrange    for  all    the  Air   Force 
installations   and  has  assisted    the  other  Services   and 
the   DIA   in   their   acquisitions.      AFIS/IND  is  promoting 
the   compatibility   of  as  many  DOD  secure    facsimile 
installations    as  possible  to    facilitate   the  exchange  of 
a   greater  volume   of    intelligence    (as  well   as  planning 
and   administrative)    data  between   DOD  organizations. 
Key    factors   in    the   success  of    Secure fax   include   the 
speed  of   transmission  and  receipt,    TEMPEST  approval  of 
the  equipment,    an  ability  to   function   over  undedicated 
telephone   lines,    and  relative    lov  cost.      AFIS/IND  is 
closely    following   the  progress  of   DACOM,    Inc,    in  their 
efforts   to  develop  a  photo   transmission  capability  which 
is   as  practical  and  as   inexpensive  as   the  Securefax.

■P     Under  normal  conditions,    approximately   500    raw 
Intelligence  Reports    (IRs)    would  be   received  weekly   from 
DIA  from  the  over   2000   coded   and  entered  by  DIA  into 
their    Intelligence   Report   Index  System    (IRISA) .      This 
system   requires  batch  processing  of  queries   through   the 
DIA  Reference  Library.      Approximately    25-30  of  the   IRs 
received  from  DIA  each  week  had  been   coded  by  AFIS/INDOC 
and  entered  into  an  on-line   DIAOLS   index.      IfJDO  designed 
a  file  processing  procedure  which  extracts  the  records 
of  all   IRs  distributed  by  DIA  to  any  AF/I8-AFIS  element 
and  places  their  records   into  an  on-line  DIAOLS   file.

verbatim   by   the   6906th   Security   Squadron   of   Air   Force 
Security  Service  and  the  transcripts  indexed  using 
approximately  40  predetermined   index  terras.     Abstracts 
were   prepared   for  each    transcription,    and   all    the   data 
reduced   to  microfiche   by   AFIS/INDO   personnel.      Arrange- 
ments were  made  with   the  NISC    for  that  agency  to  produce, 
on   a   reimbursable   basis,    the   required   number   of  microfiche

the  Lynn  Building  installation,  COMSEC  equipment  support- 
ing the  operational  intelligence  (AFIS/INOBi  function  was 
relocated  from  an  adjacent  area  into  APIS/INQ3  space  to 
insure  accessibility  of  DIAOLS  files  during  weekend  opera- 
tions and  after  normal  duty  hours.  Additional  T-16  multi-

to   utilize   the   IBM   360/75   computer   for   processing   compart- 
mentea   intelligence   data   previously  processable   only   at   the 
DIA.      Approximately   two  hours   per  week   have   been  made 
available    for  our   use   for   such   processing   in   a   dedicated 
mode.      Use  of   the   system   for   processing   of   collateral 
data    in   a   shared    (multi-programming]    mode   continued. 
Approval   was  obtained   frora   the   Air   Force   Data   Services

FOREIGN   PUBLICATIONS   IfJDEX   SYSTEM    fFPIS) 
f0    The   Soviet   Strategic   Affairs   Section   maintains    a 
collection   of   Soviet   books,    :tac,azines,    newspapers,    journals 
and   graphic  materials   related   to   Soviet   military    thought 
and   doctrine.      The   material,    primarily   unclassified   and 
written   in   Russian    for   the   consumption   of    the   soviet 
Military,    is   representative   of    the    types   of   material   avail- 
able   through   open   sources.      A   coraputer-based   information 
retrieval   system  called   the   Foreign   Publications    Index 
System    (FPIS]    was   developed    in    support   of   that   organization 
to  store    indexing  information  on  authors  of  publications 
cited   within   the   system.      PPIS   provides    for   the   classifica- 
tion  of  materials   into   Intelligence   Interest   groupings   and 
permits   either   shallow  or   in-depth   content    indexing   by 
the  user.     The  computer  software  generates  a  variety  of 
research   reports   from  the   data    base.
COMMUNICATING   MEMORY    ASSISTED    TYPEWRITERS 
fjf     Plans   were  made   to   lease   two   Wang   1300   memory-assists 
typewriters    to   test   their   communicating   capabilities   and 
determine  the  feasibility  of  using  such  equipment  to  trans 
mit    finished   unclassified   correspondence   between  widely 
separated  elements   of  AFIS.      One   of   the   machines   is   schedt 
■    for   installation  on   the   third   floor   of   the   Lynn   Building, 
where   it  will   be   accessible   by  all   AF/IN-AFIS   elements   in 
that   building,    and   the  other    in   APIS/DA   in   the   Pentagon. 
Installation   during   August   1974   is   expected.

gence,  as  envisioned  by  Major  General  George  Keegan,   pot  great 
pressure   on   the   existing   administrative   command  structure.      The 
decision  was  made  by  General   Keegan,   ACS/1,   to  enhance   reserve 
affairs  management  by  elevating   ?602d  AINTELG/INFPC   to  a 
directorate   level  within  AFIS.      The  Directorate,    Intelligence

■"■as    assigned   as    the    first   Director,    with   the   responsibility 
of   managing   the   AFIS    Intelligence   Reserve   Program.      Respon- 
sibilities   include   the   administration,    training,   and   utiliza- 
tion  of   the   AFIS    intelligence    Mobilization   Augreentee    (MA) 
§JPBJft     On  30  June   1974,    the  Directorate  was   responsible 
for   the   control  and   management  of   679    Mobilization  Augmen- 
tees    {KAs).      The   number   is   projected   to  go   over   1,000 
during  the  next  year.      These  reservists  support  HQ  OSAP, 
the  MAJCOMs,   Separate  Operating  Agencies,   and  DIA.     These 
MAs    have  expertise'  in  human   source   intelligence,    foreign 
language  document  exploitation,   threat  assessment  and 
analysis,   aerospace  intelligence,  photo  interpretation 
ajid  targeting,   area  analysis,    and  scientific  and  technical 
intelligence. 
Bflf     The   initial   guidance    for   the   intelligence  MA  program 
was    under   the  AFXR  Plan.        With   the   establishment  or   AFIS/RE, 
the  AF/IN-APXS  staffs  agreed  to  an  amended  plan  to  preclude 
tiitie  consuming  Air  Staff  coordination.     AF/IN  Reserve  Forces 
advisor,   Haj  Gould,   and  Mobilization  Augmentee  to  the  Deputy 
ACS/I,   Colonel  Longanecker,   through  concentrated  effort, 
produced  the  AFXR  Programmed  Action  Directive    (PAD)    74-1  for 
ACS/I  signature.     The  PAD  74-1  was  approved  fay  the  ACS/I  on 
24  January  1974.
PAD  74-1  lists  actions  and  their  expected  completion 
dates  required  to  meet  the  stated  objective — the  improvement 
and  expansion  of  the  Air  Force  Intelligence  Reserve.  It  sho>. 
the  relationship  of  reserve  support  of  active  duty  missions 
in  peacetime  as  an  integral  part  of  maintaining  proficiency 
and  mobilization  readiness. 
SJiBJggfc   The  PAD  specifies  three  major  program  objectives: 
1.  Skills  that  a  commander  needs  to  conduct  successful 
combat  operations  will  be  developed  on  a.  priority  basis. 
Imagery  interpretation  targeting,  interdiction  analysis, 
bomb  damage  assessment/  weaponeering,  area  studies,  and 
human  resources  collection  are  some  of  the  skills  given 
highest  priority  under  this   PAD. 
2.  Reservists  exceptionally  qualified  in   the  needed 
skills  will  be   recruited  to  support  and  staff  departmental 
intelligence  functions. 
3.  Professional  capability  will  be  developed  to 
address  Air  Force   intelligence  requirements  at  the  highest 
analytical,   policy,    and  operational  levels,   and  including 
those  of  a  scientific  and  technical  nature. 
QgSSB  The  PAD's  objective  are  oriented,  primarily  toward 
the  mobilization  augi-^ntee  program.  However,  the  PAD  also 
includes  measures   to  strengthen  the  intelligence  function
lop 
An  objective   PAD    73-1    is   the    improvement   of 
intelligence   reserve   operations  with   MAJCOMs,    DIA,    and 
other   joint   commands   and   agencies.      The   first  phase   of 
this   objective   is   to   inform   the  potential   clients   of 
the   intelligence   reserve   program  by  way   of  briefings.      Phase 
one   has   been   completed.      All   MAJCOMs   and   DIA  were  briefed 
by   mid-March   1974, 
BEffflfl   -PAD   74-1  briefings  were   also'  included   in   the  staff 
assistance  visits   of  AFIS/RE   to  AFIS   Reserve   Detachments 
4   and   15  on   22-24   February    1974;    Detachment   14,    8-10   March 
1974;   Detachments    12,    15   and   16,   April   1974;   Detachment   1, 
27   April   1974,    and   Detachment   3,    4-5  May   1974. 
mSBa     ^°   support   the   PAD,    to  determine   the  overall 
validity  of  the  AFXS/RF.  mission   and   objectives,   an-d  to 
validate  tRaiteower  requirements,  colonel  Karkarian  requested 
a  manpower  survey  for  the  Directorate    (AFIS/RF.) .     The 
survey  began  on  1  April  1974  by  AFIS/MO.     The  general 
areas   examined  by   the  management  survey  were:      the  mission 
and  objective;  organization;  work  methods  and  procedures; 
workloads;  staffing;   and  facilities  and  equipment.
127 
f  The   AFIS/MO   Management    Survey    (FC   1013,    final    repor 
determined   AFIS/RE   required   a    strength   of    31   personnel    to 
perform   the    functions   assigned   at   the   time   of   the   survey. 
This   would   raise   as    the   number   of   MAs   in    the   APIS 
program   increased.      However,    due  to  manpower  limitations 
throughout   the  AFIS,   only  twenty-five    (2S>    active  duty  per- 
sonnel were  authorized  to  currently  man  the  Directorate. 
Additionally,    five    (5)    reservists   on  extended   tours   also 
support  the   Directorate,   bringing  the  total  strength  to 
30  personnel. 
^§§SBf   The  organisational  structure  of   the  Directorate 
consists  of  three   line  divisions  and  staff  support  in 
administration  and  executive  services.      The  three  divisions 
are  Operations  and  Training,    Personnel  Management,    and  Pro- 
grams Management. 
In  support  of  Tactical  Air  Command  active  force 
requirements,    two  officers,    Lt  Colonel  Holjses,  AFIS/INT,    and 
Major  Bowets,  AF/INYD,  were  designated  to  assist  AFIS/RE 
in  the  development  of  targeting  and   imagery  functions  on  a 
Sflflg    A  conference  was  held   at  Langley  APB,    29~3G  August 
1973.     The  conference  addressed  the  utilization  of  AFIS 
reserves  in  targeting  and  imagary  functions  in  support  of 
the  480th  Reconnaissance  Technical  Group  and  TAC/IN.     All
participants  agreed  that  the  AFrs  reserve  targeting  anc

AFIS  reserve  photo  interpreters   ajid  target  officers  be  select- 
ed to  attend  an  orientation  session  at  Langley  AFB.      Four  photo 
interpreters  and  one  target  officer  attended  s  TAC  Direc- 
torate of  Targets  Orientation,    21-23  January  1974. 
^■m^     It  was  later  determined  to  eliminate  the  targeting 
functions  and  to  proceed  with   the  imagery  support  only.
Reserve   support   to   the    480    RTG   began   on    26   November    1973 
with    the   assignment   of   Captain   Mansfield   of   AFIS    Reserve 
Detachment   3,  Castle  AFB,    CA.      Being  a  qualified  imagery 
interpreter.    Captain   Mansfield   researched   aerial   and   ground 
imagery    for  the  production  of   imagery   interpretation  keys. 
He  expanded  this  task   to  include   the  detection  and  identi* 
fication  of  certain  weapons   systems   in  use,    and  the  sub- 
sequent cataloging  of  the   imagery  of  the  systems   for  use 
with  a  computer  file.      The   ideal  of  the  computer  file  and 
other  procedures  which  Captain  Mansfield  developed  will 
continue  to  be  used  by  the   480   BTG  Imagery   Interpretation 
Keys  Branch.  '. 
^f^jjjB      It  vss  apparent  that  the  most  effective  utilization 
of   Intelligence  Heservists  could  be   realized  only  through  the 
employment  of  key  reservists  in  positions  requiring  special 
access  clearances.      In  many  cases,   meaningful  support  to  the 
active  force  was   contingent  upon  the   capability  of  reservists 
to  work  with  Special   Intelligence    (SI)    and  Special  Activities 
Office    [SAO]   materials  during   two  week  active  duty  tours. 
Many  highly  qualified  individuals  had  used  such  materials 
while  on  active  duty  and  would  certainly  be  expected  to  use 
them  if  recalled  to  active  duty  during  crisis  situations.     As 
reservists,   they  were  denied  access   to  information  and 
intelligence  materials  that  would  permit  theffl  to  be  fully 
productive  manpower  resources  within  the  total  force 
concept.
that    it   had   been   granted    twenty- four   SAO  billets    for   use   by 
Air    Force   intelligence   in   a    test   program  designed   to   determine 
the    feasibility   and   effectiveness   of   using   reservists   in   highly 
sensitive  positions.      The   test   program   was    instituted   in   March 
at   the    9th   Tactical    Intelligence   Squadron    1TIS)    at   Langley  AFB, 
VA.      The  twenty-four  individuals   involved  were  photo  interpreters 
who   were   scheduled   for   two-week   active   duty   tours   between   March 
and   August    1974.      Reserve   support   to    9   TIS  has   been   continuous 
from   that   time.      The   reservists   compiled  Automated  Tactical 
Target  Graphics  and  updated  information  on  targets.      There  are 
already   indicators   of   the   project's   unqualified   success,    and 
an   effective   conclusion    is   expected   in  August    1974.      The   experi- 
ment  has   already   demonstrated   that    reservists   can  make   substan- 
tial   contributions    to  the   production   of   SAO   materials   and 
proved   that  reservists  can  successfully  be  integrated  into 
SAO   production  enviraraae-nts   through   existing   personnel   and 
physical    security   procedures. 
EBB  APIS/RE's   support   of    DIA   is   a   continuous   objective   of 
PAD   74-1.      Efforts    to  build-up   Detachment   19    for   in-piace 
support  had  high  priority.      The  manning  of  vacant  MA  spaces 
in  support  of  DIA  is  progressing  toward  completion.

vBBr   AFIS/RE  developed!  proposed  objectives  for  a  two-week 
reserve  SST  intelligence  course.   This  course  will  enable 
2Sxx,  27xx,  and  2Bxx  reservists  to  support  active  force  opera- 
tional requirements.   An  SST  officer  from  AF/INAK  assisted 
AFIS/RE  on  this  project.   The  SST  intelligence  course,  devel- 
oped by  ATC,  will  be  conducted  at  the  Armed  Forces  Air 
Intelligence  Training  Center  (APfllTC),  Lowry  APB,  during 
FY  1975.  Thirty  school  tour  quotas  for  the  required  train-

'j^sSV   Foreign   Technology   Division    (FTD)  ,   AFSC,    received 
support   from   two  APIS   reservists  who  served  active   duty 
tours   with   FTD  during   this   period.      Both  performed   tours   in 
response   to  SST  requirements    levied  by   FTD.      As   a   direct 
result  of  one  of   the   tours,    FTD   has   tasked   Reserve 
Detachment   7,   MacDill   AFB,    to  provide   continuing   support   to 
FTD   through   a   combination  of    active  duty   tours   and  weekend 
training.      Detachment   7   is   the   first  AFIS   detachment  to  be 
tasked   to  provide   such    support. 
^HHff    Four   additional  AFIS    reservists  have  been   tentatively 
identified   to  respond   to  FTD    requirements   for   support.      If 
plans   to  use   these   reservists   are   implemented,    three  addi- 
tional   reserve   detachments   could  be   tasked   to   support  FTD 
fSBBEl  Reserve  detachment   support  of  AFRES   and  Air  Guard 
flying  units  was   initiated  when  APIS   reserve  detachments 
collocated  with  Air  Force  reserve  flying  units  established 
contact  with  the   flying   unit  commanders.      AFRES   flying  units

were  offered  intelligence  support  geared  to  strengthening 
their  units'  intelligence  functions.  Flying  unit  colanders 
have  been  briefed  by  Major  Gould,  AF/inyx,  and  MSgt  Fletcher, 
AFIS/RE,  on  AFIS  reserve  detachment  capabilities.  Two  Air

Pentagon  and  Fort   Selvoir,    VA.      The   purpose  of   the   conference 
was   to  provide   the   latest   information  available   to   the 
Detachment   Commanders   so   that,    collectively,    they   could 
confront   the  critical   issues,    develop  proposed  solutions,

to  the   AFIS/RE   intelligence   program.      These   officers   are 
assigned   to   the   9020   Air   Reserve   Squadron   (ARPC)    and 
attached   to   AFIS   reserve   detachments   for  proficiency   training. 
This    sew  program  undertakes   a   new  ISAFR  mission   in  support   of

involving   Air   Force   participation   in    the   DAS. 
SELECTION    OF    ATTACHE   PERSONNEL 
g$  In  the  recent  past,  the  United  States  Air  force  (USAF} 
led  the  three  services  in  the  number  of  attache  personnel 
whose  tours  of  duty  were  curtailed  for  either  personal  or 
official  reasons.  Since  attache  assignments  require  one 
to  two  years  of  preparation,  these  curtailments  have  been 
extremely  costly  and  in  rcany  cases  embarrassing  to  the 
USAF.      As   a   result,    during   FY    74,    ar.   extensive   effort  was 
quality  of  Air  Force  attache  nominees.  The  initial  effort 
was  directed  toward  a  more  extensive  screening  of  records 
to   identify   officers   and   airmen  with   superior   records
-evened   in   Washington!    to  determine   personal    and   prc- 
■  ;i?nal   motivation   and   adaptability   to   a   mil itary/polit 
■iroRiaent.      The   panel    is    chaired   by    the   Deputy   Assistar 
invited,    etc. 
g|  During  FY  74,  this  panel  interviewed  seventy-seven  (77; 
attache  designees,  accepting  fifty-one  (511  [see  Appendix  2) 
and    rejecting   twenty-six    (26). 
CAREER    ENHANCEMENT 
^3      The   programed   change    in    the   USAF  Officer    Effectiveness 
Reporting   System  during   FY    75    impacted  directly  on   USAF 
efforts   to   provide  outstanding   officers    to   the    Defense 
Intelligence   Agency    (DIAS    for   Air  Attache   duty.      Specifically, 
Assistant   Chief  of   Staff,    Intelligence   evaluations,    in   the 
form  of   Letters   of   Evaluation    (LOEsI,    are   no   longer  per- 
mitted within   the   regulation.      Consequently,   Air   Force 
efforts   to  enhance   professional   and   promotion   opportunities
for   this   elite   group   of   AF   officers   have   beer;    lost    through 
the   elimination   of   the   LOE.       However,    in    an   attempt   to 
the   DAS,    the    Defense    Intelligence   Agency    (DIA)    has   been 
requested   to   permit    the   Assistant   Chief   of    Staff,    Intelligence 
to   assume   the   reviewer's    function   within   the   new  OES  system. 
This    function   would   permit   direct   competition   aisong   world- 
wide   assigned   attaches,    provide    for   direct   service   promotion 
and   career  monitoring,    and   most    importantly,    fortifying 
the   career   enhancement   effort   we   have   undertaken   within 
the  Air  Force. 
Q|      l^e   positive   efforts   expended   by  AFIS/IJJH   for   career 
enhancement   of   attache   personnel    became   evident   during 
of   the   Air   Force   rates   of    36%    and   12%,    respectively. 
A   listing  of  officer   and   enlisted  promotions    is    included 
as   Appendix   2. 
REPRESENTATIONAL   GIFT    ITEMS 
g£      AFIS/INH  has   continued   the   program   to   provide   Air 
Attaches   with   uniquely   Air   Force    representational   gift   items 
for   their   use   on   station.      During   this   FY,    the   program
was    funded    in   the  amount  of  $13,000,    to  be  used   in   two 
and    1401    items   dispersed    to   Air   Attaches    worldwide.      This 
program  will   be   budgeted    for  again    in   FY   76.      Response 
from  attaches   concerning   the  program  has   been  overwhelmingly

ward  and   that   the   Egyptians   were   not   otherwise   violating 
the   ceasefire   agreement.       In   some   instances,    the    IDF 
permitted   the   UN   observers   only   limited   access    to   the 
front   lines.      An  ostensible   reason   for   this    restriction 
was   the   safety  of   the  observers  who,    to  move   along   the

As  the  IDF  withdrew,  UNTSO  patrols  also  were  removed;  by 
the  second  week  in  February,  only  two  remained  active. 
The  United  Nations  Emergency  Force  (UNEF)  then  moved  in 
to  occupy  a  HC-mile-long  buffer  zone  between  the  Israeli

by  Andrews  APB  range  personnel;  facilities 
at  Fort  **eade ,  Maryland,  were  used,  since 
the  range  at  Andrews  AFS  has  been  condemned 
because   of   proximity   to   the    flight   lines.

Camp   McCoy,    Wisconsin,    and   Fort   MacArthur,    California. 
Three   allocations   were   provided    for  each   course.      The 
training  will   be   conducted   in   July   1974.      Both   courses 
will   be  of   two  weeks'    duration   and   both  will   be   tailored
for   aerospace    personnel.      The  grouo  droooed    the  previously 
used  eight-week    interrogation  course  at   Fort    Huachuca, 
Arizona,    because  of    length  of  training   tir*e   and    lack   of

Interrogation    Exercises 
FLINTLOCK    7  3 
QB      This   was    an   unconventional   warfare   exercise   conducted 
by  the   Support  Operations  Task    Force   Europe    iSOTFE)    in 
West   Germany   during   the   period    4-16   September    1973.       In 
the   pre-exercise   phase,    Captain  Andrew  G.    Forth    (INXB) 
presented    two  E&E  briefings,    including   the  one  on    "Cap- 
tivity  in   Southeast  Asia,    1964-1973,"   to  selected   exer- 
cise participants.      During    the  operational    play,    Capt 
Forth  was   a   member  of   the   E&E   network  soecifically    tasked 
with   contacting  and   assisting    friendly    "evaders .  "      ^e 
also  participated   in   the   debriefing  phase. 
0|      Captain  William  B.    Wheeler    (INOD!,    assisted   by    four 
7SQ2d   reservists,    constituted    the    "hostile"    force's 
interrogation    team.      Their   sources  were  eicht    "captured" 
aircrew  and   special    forces   oersonnel   drawn    from  partici- 
pating  Army,    Navy,    ana   Air    Force   units.      Interrogation 
resulted   in  the  acquisition  of   tactical    information   and 
information  which  compromised    the   ooposing    force's 
escape  and  evasion   networks.      In  addition,    signed
propaganda  statements  were  obtained  from  several  of  I 
interrogees-      These    results   clearly   pointed    to   the    n<

ABSTRACT 
Chapter  11  -  Operational  Intelligence 
This  chapter  provides  an  account  of  significant 
support  activities  in  the  current  intelligence,  target 
intelligence,  and  special  intelligence  research  areas. 
Of  particular  interest  is  the  description  of  improved 
intelligence  informational  support  provided  to  the 
Air  Force  at  large  and  the  decision-related  special 
interest  situations  briefed  and  otherwise  described  to 
the  Chief  of  Staff  and  the  Air  Staff.

Branch").   The  former  AFIS  IHOV  was  redesignated  AFIS/INZB 
and  retained  the  sane  graphic  support  function. 
{Excised]  The  Mission  of  the  Aerospace  Intelligence  Division 
was  unchanged.   The  Division  continued  to  provide  signifi- 
can  current  intelligence  support  to  the  Secretary  of  the 
Air  Force,  the  Chief  of  Staff  (CSAF) ,  the  Deputy  Chief  of 
Staff  for  Plans  and  Operations,  the  Assistant  chief  of 
Staff  Intelligence,  and  various  other  Air  Staff  elements. 
Some  2,253  briefing  items  were  presented  to  Air  Staff 
audiences  during  the  period.  The  division  also  continued 
support  of  Major  Air  Commands  and  special  units  throughout 
the  Air  Force,  h   current  intelligence  message  was 
dispatched  daily  to  various  headquarters  addressees. 
EDITING,  BRIEFING,  AND  CONTINUITY 
[Excised]  The  primary  function  □£  the  Editing,  Briefing,  and 
Continuity  Branch  (AFIS  'INZA')  was  to  prepare  and  present 
daily  current  intelligence  briefing  to  the  Chief  of 
Staff,  USAF,  and  senior  Air  Staff  offices  within  Head- 
quarters, S3SAF. 
[Excised]  The  branch  performed  preliminary  intelligence 
analysis  of  fast-breaking  situations.   INZA  also  provided 
continuous  reporting  on  world  situations  which  could 
potentially  affect  USAF  interests.   Frequent  reporting  in 
the  areas  of  weapons  development  and  hardware  acquisition 
was  also  emphasized.
(Page  Thirteen)  21 
{Excised]  With  the  retirement  of  General  John  P.    Ryan  as  CSAF 
in  July,  1973,  briefing  requirements  underwent  numerous 
changes.  The  new  CSAF,  General  George  S.  Brown,  requested 
a  weekly,  rather  than  daily,  formal  intelligence  briefing 
during  the  Air  Council  meeting  each  Wednesday.   Daily 
inputs  of  perishable  intelligence  were  provided  to  the 
ACS  I  who,  in  turn,  passed  the  information  to  the  Chief 
of  Staff  at  his  daily  staff  meeting.  Overall,  the  actual 
number  of  briefings  increased  with  emphasis  on  dissemina- 
tion to  key  Air  Staff  Deputates  and  Agencies  with  a  need 
for  information.   The  DCS/Plans  &  Operations,  along 
with  his  entire  staff,  received  a  daily  briefing.  The 
Secretary  of  the  Air  Force  and  two  Assistant  secretaries 
were  added  as  weekly  recipients  of  isza  briefings,   other  key 
audiences  included  the  DCS/Researoh  fi  Development, 
DCS  Systems  S  Logistics,  ACS/Studies  S  Analysis,  the 
Commander  and  Staff,  Air  Force  Systems  Command,  and 
several  sub-deputate  groups  such  as  the  Director  Military 
Asistance  &  Sales.  An  average  of  18  briefings  was 
presented  weekly  by  the  Branch. 
[Excised]  The  branch  continued  to  provide  alert  officers  who 
identified  and  acted  upon  significant  intelligence  data 
in  the  mass  of  incoming  information.  Alert  officers 
provided  the  ACS/I's  24~hour-per-day  warning  capability. 
During  the  Middle  East  and  Cyprus  crises,  the  Alert  Oficers
(Page  Fourteen)  26 
(Excised}  These  briefings  were  also  transmitted  in 
message  format  to  major  commands  and  selected  USAF  elements 
worldwide.   In  addition,  the  team  provided  continuous 
support  to  the  Air  Force  Operations  Center  and  the  contin- 
gency support  Staff,  including  a  minimus  of  two  updated 
intelligence  briefings  per  day  through  31  October. 
[Excised]  As  hostilities  subsided  on  24  October,  the  Task 
Force  began  preparing  a  detailed  review  of  the  war, 
including  major  phases  of  the  conflict,  tactics  employed, 
losses  incurred,  and  preliminary  lessons  learned  pertinent 
to  air  operations.   This  briefing  proved  to  be  the  most 
authoritative  and  comprehensive  study  of  the  war  avail- 
able to  military  and  civilian  decision  makers  in  the 
Washington  Area,  and  was  presented  to  the  secetary  of  the 
Air  Force,  the  chief  of  Staff,  and  other  senior  Air  Force 
officials  within  a  week  after  the  cessation  of  hostilities. 
The  presentation  was  continually  updated  as  more  information 
became  available,  and  eventually  included  more  than  400 
graphics.   It  has  since  been  presented  by  INZ  personnel 
to  over  25  different  audiences,  numbering  sorae  1,000 
personnel,  including  the  commander  and  staffs  of  major 
commands  such  TAC,  MAAC,  SAC,  ADC,  and  USAFE.   Further- 
more, the  script  and  graphics  of  this  presentation  were 
incorporated  into  a  Kid-East  War  brochure  prepared  by  the 
Middle  Bast  Task  Force  and  provided  to  the  Chief  of  Staff
far  his  use  during  the  NATO  Senior  Airmen  talks  in  December 
1973.

and  methodologies  to  analyze  effects  of  air-delivered 
munitions  on  surface  targets.  Captain  Puckefct  prepared 
and  provided  descriptions  and  studies  on  LORAfJ  bombing,  air- 
craft shelter  vulnerability,  and  other  subjects.   Captain 
Puckett  also  assisted  in  the  review  of  the  draft  JMEK 
basic  manual  which  will  serve  as  a  primary  reference  docu- 
ment in  non-nuclear  weaponeering.

Target  conferences:  Lt  Col  Theodorou  and  Captain 
Puckett  attended  Target  Intelligence  Conferences  in  PACAF 
and  OSAFE.   At  PACAF,  discusssion  centered  around  the  crea- 
tion of  the  CIKCPAC  Intelligence  Center  Pacific  IPAC  and 
what  impact  it  would  have  on  PACAF  targeting.   Colonel 
Stahmer,  Assistant  DCS/I,  PACAF  felt  that  PACAF  would  lose 
certain  capabilities  and  would  require  increased  support 
from  APIS.   Required  support  would  include: 
a.  Analytical  studies,  such  as  that  conducted 
by  PACAF/INT  on  north  Korean  capabilities. 
b.  Weapons  development  and  allocation  studies
(Page  Seventeen)  40 
based  on  detailed  weaponeering  analysis  of  potential  and 
actual  needs. 
c.   studies  examining  future  requirements  in  the 
areas  of  procedures,  equipment,  hardware  systems,  etc., 
which  could  irapact  on  the  targeting  process.   At  USAFE, 
the  purpose  of  the  conference  was  to  bring  together 
for  the  first  time  the  Target  Officers  of  USAFE  tactical 
units  for:  a  cross  talk;  discussion  of  problems  faced 
by  unit  level  personnel;  to  meet  the  targets  staff; 
and  to  participate  in  the  re-write  and  updating  of  certain 
USAFE  regulations  and  manuals  which  impact  on  unit  level 
intelligence  operations.* 
Attendance  at  these  conferences  afforded  AFIS/XNT  an 
excellent  opportunity  to  review  targeting/ weapon ee ring 
functions  and  procedures  at  the  command  and  unit  level, 
[excised]  Target  System  Analysis:  Captain  Puckett  developed 
concepts,  computer  programs  and  applications  associated 
with  target  system  analysis.   Such  analysis  involved  the 
use  of  mathematical  models  in  the  analysis  of  complex  target 
systems.   Examples  of  working  computer  models  that  were 
developed  from  earlier  sources  by  Captain  Puckett  are  the 
network  model  for  the  analysis  of  flow  networks  such  as 
electric  power  systems  and  the  expected  utility  model  for 
the  analysis  of  target  systems  with  components  which  have 
a  measurable  utility.  The  models  were  incorporated  into 
the  Intelligence  Targeting  Officer  Course  at  Lowry  AFB.
