DIRECTORATE  OF  COLLECTION 
(U)  Development  of  Air  Force  Manual 
m  I   The  recognized  need  for  specific  and 
formalized  guidance  and  control  in  the  field  of  Human 
Source  Intelligence  Collection  led  to  the  development  of 
an  Air  Force  Manual,  title:   (U)  USAF  Human  Source 
Intelligence  Collection.   At  the  close  of  this  reporting 
period,  the  manual  was  entering  the  final  phase  of  coord- 
ination and  will  be  presented  to  the  subordinate  and  USAF 
component  commands  for  study  and  comment  in  the  early  part 
of  1962. 
(U)  Summary  of  Short  Term  Aerospace  Intelligence  Require- 
raents  (STAIR)_  Activity 
During  *"iis  reporting  period  352  STAIRS  were 
served  on  field  elements  for  collection  action.   408  STAIRS 
were  cancelled  during  this  reporting  period,  and  305 
remained  outstanding  for  collection  action. 
(U)  Foreign  Language  Publications 
The  Collection  Division  continued  to  support 
the  US IB  Committee  on  Procurement  of  Foreign  Publications 
(PROCIB)  and  the  Committee  on  Exploitation  of  Foreign 
Language  Publications  (CEFCP) .   The  USAF  member  served  as 
the  Washington  Area  coordinator  and  represented  AFCIN  at  a 
formal  review  of  the  USAF  Scientific  and  Technical  Exploita- 
tion Program  (STEP)  conducted  by  AFSC(FTD)  at  Wright- 
Patterson  AFB,  Ohio,  during  the  month  of  October  1961.
Space  Detection  and  Tracking  Program 
Participation  in  this  program  was  discon- 
tinued on  6  November  1961,  and  the  function  was  transferred 
to  AFCIN-P  (Policy  and  Programs) . 
(U)  Reconnaissance  Priority  List 
^^■■HkDuring  this  period,  the  Reconnaissance  Prior- 
ity List  has  become  fully  operational  and  has  proved  its 
adequacy  for  meeting  the  sophisticated  demands  of  modern 
reconnaissance  collection  systems.   Where  formerly  it  was 
on  IBM  cards,  it  has  now  been  converted  to  magnetic  tape 
and  integrated  with  the  Aerospace  Intelligence  File  of  AFIC 
This  list  is  continuously  maintained  and  updated  monthly. 
participate  in  the  entire  program  in  all  priority  areas. 
To  date,  the  Army  and  Navy  have  indicated  a  desire  to  fully 
participate.   By  putting  the  Reconnaissance  Priority  List 
on  magnetic  tape,  it  not  only  answers  the  basic  requirements 
of"  reconnaissance  collection,  but  has  provided  many  addi- 
tional usable  products .   For  example,  machine  runs  can  be 
made  of  priority  objectives  which  have  proved  to  be  useful 
tools  in  exploitation.   The  tape  can  be  converted  to  IBM 
cards  for  graphic  plotting  by  machine  which  provides  a 
major  assist  in  operational  planning.
The  last  major  addition  to  the  Reconnais- 
sance Priority  List  is  now  being  programmed.  This  is  to 
include  all  the  photography  available  for  each  objective 
on  to  the  basic  reconnaissance  file  and  AIF. 
This  major  task  is  expected  to  be  completed  in  the 
next  six  months. 
(U)  Equipment  Review  Meeting 
tfHBP   A  joint  USAFE/PACAF/Hq  USAF  Equipment 
Review  Meeting  was  conducted  27  -  30  September  1961.   The 
purpose  of  this  meeting  was  to  familiarize  representatives 
from  the  two  overseas  commands  with  current  exploitation 
equipment.   Representatives  were  provided  with  a  first- 
hand view  of  the  latest  equipment  during  conducted  tours 
of  National  Photo  Interpretation  Center,  AFIC,  and  the  ACIC . 
As  a  result  of  the  meeting,  the  overseas  commands  formulated 
equipments  lists  based  on  current  participation  in  the 
reconnaissance  photo  exploitation  cycle.   The  overseas 
equipment  lists  have  been  received  in  this  Headquarters  and 
action  has  been  initiated  to  procure  items  required.

(U)   Transfer  of  Requirements  Division  Personnel  and 
Functions  to  Defense  Intelligence  Agency 
(Unci)   On  21  November  1961,  Colonel  L.  E.  May,  Chief, 
Requirements  Division,  was  transferred  to  the  Defense 
Intelligence  Agency.   Subsequently,  all  personnel  assigned 
to  the  Requirements  Division  were  transferred  to  form  the 
nucleus  of  the  Requirements  Office,  Defense  Intelligence 
Agency.   This  nucleus  performed  the  functions  of  both  the 
Requirements  Division  and  DIA  until  1  January  1962.
(*0  Establishment  of  an  Air  Force  Special  Security 
Office  Consumer  Network 
MBHI  Commencing  in  May  1961,  a  deterioration  of 
timely  communications  service  to  the  USAF  Warning  Center  was 
experienced.  Consequently,  in  late  July  1961,  the  Director 
of  Telecommunications  appointed  a  project  officer  to  study 
the  communications  problems  causing  this  delay.  A  team, 
including  intelligence  representation,  visited  Headquarters, 
USAF  Security  Service,  San  Antonio,  Texas  on  23  July  to 
analyze  the  communications  problem.   The  analysis  led  to  the 
recommendation  that  an  independent  Air  Force  Special  Security 
Office  communications  net  be  established  with  limited 
connections  to  the  Critical  Intelligence  Communications  System, 
In  order  to  implement  the  recommendation  of  the  study  team, 
Air  Staff,  J-2,  Defense  Communications  Agency  and  National 
Security  Agency  concurrence  was  obtained. 
4M8BH£  A  Requirements  Working  Group  and  a  Procedures 
Working  Group  were  established  to  develop  pre-planning 
information  in  support  of  the  network.   Intelligence  personnel 
were  represented  on  both.   In  addition,  the  ACS/Intelligence 
also  assumed  the  task  of  reducing  the  number  of  addresses 
,to  special  reports  by  25  per  cent  within  the  Air  Force.   As 
a  corollary  action,  the  ACS/Intelligence  also  agreed  to 
contact  Army,  Navy  and  NSA  to  recommend  similar  reductions  in 
their  areas  of  control .
(Unci)   The  Requirements  Working  Group  met  26 
through  29  September.  Requirements  for  circuits,  equipment, 
manpower,  engineering,  installation,  and  supporting  facili- 
ties were  determined.  The  information  developed  by  the 
Requirements  Working  Group  was  disseminated  to  all  interested 
commands  and  later  made  available  to  the  Procedures  Working 
Group.   Headquarters,  USAF  Security  Service  hosted  a  conf- 
erence of  all  interested  commands  on  16  through  20  October 
1961.   At  this  conference,  pre-planning  information  was 
thoroughly  discussed,  and  views  of  the  participating  commands 
were  obtained.  USAF  Security  Service  was  given  the  task  of 
managing  the  implementation  of  the  network. 
(Unci)  On  31  October,  the  Procedures  Working  Group  met 
to  develop  the  initial  draft  of  a  procedures  manual.   The 
final  draft  of  this  manual  is  to  be  presented  to  Headquarters 
USAF  (Director  of  Telecommunications)  for  approval  no  later 
than  20  January  1962. 
The  present  target  date  for  implementation  of 
the  communications  network  and  revised  intelligence  dissemin- 
ation is  1  March  1962.   All  Assistant  Chief  of  Staff ,  Intelligence 
responsibilities  assumed  under  this  project  have  been 
accomplished. 
(U)  Counterpart  Mars  Program 
(Unci)   Subsequent  to  the  Chief  of  Staff's  conference 
with  Latin  American  Air  Force  Chiefs,  held  in  the  late
Spring  of  1961,  General  White  offered  to  establish  a  MARS 
program  for  certain  Latin  American  air  forces,  the  purpose 
being  to  provide  contact  between  these  Latin  American 
countries  and  with  USAF  facilities  in  the  Caribbean  in  the 
interest  of  good  will  and  friendly  relations.  During  the 
conference  held  in  June  1961  for  attaches  accredited  to 
South  American  countries ,  the  concept  for  the  counterpart 
MARS  program  was  presented.   Air  Attaches  were  asked  to 
contact  their  host  Air  Force  regarding  whether  or  not  they 
desired  to  participate  in  the  program. 
(Unci)   The  ACS/Intelligence  and  the  Directorate  of 
Telecommunications  were  the  two  principal  Air  Staff  offices 
involved  with  this  project.   The  ACS/Intelligence  tasking 
was  to  follow-up  with  the  Air  Attaches  to  determine  the 
countries  desiring  to  participate  in  the  program.   All 
countries  solicited  were  agreeable.   The  twelve  countries 
included  in  the  program  are:   Brazil,  Uruguay,  Peru, 
Argentina,  Chile,  Venezuela,  Colombia,  Guatemala,  El  Salvador, 
Honduras,  Nicaragua  and  Paraguay.

(U)  Intelligence/Air  Attache  Conferences 
f  H  A  USAF  Pacific  Region  Intelligence  Conference 
hosted  by  the  13th  Air  Force  was  held  in  Baguio,  Philippines 
during  the  period  13-17  November  1961.   Thirteen  air  attaches 
of   the  Pacific  region  were  present,  in  addition  to  repre- 
sentatives from  Headquarters,  USAF. 
|    I  The  1127th  Field  Activities  Group  inspection 
team  attended  a  three-day  Air  Attache  Scandinavian  conference 
in  Stockholm,  Sweden  in  July  1961. 
(U)  Newly  Activated  Air  Attache  Stations 
(Unci)   An  air  attache  office  was  activated  on  24  July 
1961  ir.  Rabat,  Morocco.   Manning  for  this  station  consists 
of  two  officers  and  two  airmen  with  an  assigned  aircraft . 
(Unci)   An  air  attache  office  was  opened  in  Brazzaville, 
Republic  of  Congo,  on  28  August  1961.   Manning  for  this 
station  consists  of  three  officers  and  four  airmen  with  an 
assigned  aircraft.   The  Air  Force  is  the  Executive  Agent  for 
this  station. 
(U)  Closing  of  Office  of  the  Air  Attache,  Cuba 
(Unci)   In  July  1961  the  Office  of  the  Air  Attache,  Cuba, 
located  at  Homestead  AFB,  Florida  was  deactivated. 
Replacement  of  K-17  Camera 
ttH^S  £  A  study  and  service  test  is  being  conducted 
utilizing  the  P-2  70mm  aerial  camera  as  a  replacement  for 
-  **am**.
the  K-17.   Initial  reports  during  this  period  regarding 
the  P-2  have  been  most  encouraging.   The  camera  is  designed 
for  fixed  installation,  but  can  be  modified  for  rapid  hand- 
held operation.   All  air  attache  stations  possessing 
aircraft  are  programmed  to  receive  the  P-2  by  June  1962. 
(U)   Single  Side  Band  Transceivers 
fi    P  Due  to  the  lack  of  commercial  communications 
facilities  in  Africa  and  the  need  for  constant  contact  with 
the  embassy,  the  Collins  Single  Side  Band  (KWM2A)  was 
purchased  for  the  Air  Attache,  Leopoldville.   This  equip- 
ment has  proved  to  be  of  invaluable  assistance,  not  only 
as  a  communications  unit,  but  has  been  used  to  provide 
on-the-spot  reporting  in  emergencies.   Action  is  being 
taken  to  provide  the  Air  Attaches,  Abidjan,  Brazzaville, 
Tananarive  and  Pretoria  with  a  common  communications  net 
within  the  African  complex.

(U)  Information  Branch ,  International  Liaison  Division 
(Unci)   No  change  in  organizational  structure  of  Branch 
mission  occurred  during  the  reporting  period.   Volume  of 
activity  decreased  over  the  previous  six  months  period  by 
fifteen  per  cent  (15%) .   This  trend  is  normal  for  the 
second  half  of  the  year  and  reflects,  basically,  a  lack  of 
activity  during  the  month  of  December,  when  visitation  is 
limited  and  attaches  and  defense  staffs  in  Washington  are 
on  holiday.   5,216  individual  requests  for  release  of 
military  information  were  processed  resulting  in  approxi- 
mately 16,000  individual  staff  actions.
