*  (1)  O)  Former  Command  lag  Officers  Visit*  On  ZQ   January  1982  i  seven 
former  COs  ( Hear  Admirals  Donald  M.  Showers,  Donald  P.  Harvey,  andf John  L* " 
Butts  and  Captains  John  Q*  Edwards,  Emory  Sour beer,  George  Pressly^  and 
Charles  Peterson)  visited  NRDIO  for  a  Command  familiarization  briefing  and 
tour  of  the  NFOIO  spaces*  Following  the  tour,  IAIPS,  personnel  manning,  NSA 
relations,  new  initiatives  and  command  shortfalls  were  discussed* 
(2)  (U)  Command  Prayer  Breakfast »  On  25  February  1982,  NFOIO 
participated  In  the  NISC  Command  Prayer  Breakfast  held  In  the  NIC-2  large 
conference  room* 
(3)  (0)  Visit  of  House  of  Representatives  Appropriations  Committee 
(S&I)  Team*  The  HAC  (S&I)  visited  NFOIO  on  8  April  1982.  There  were  no 
problems  encountered  or  significant  new  issues  raised.  The  team  received  a 
Command  briefing  and  a  tour  of  NOSIC  spaces*  Additionally,  the  following 
items  were  discussed: 
-Problems  of  long-term  planning  in  an  era  of  budget  uncertainty* 
-Ad  hoc  and  changing  nature  of  the  current  intelligence/OPINTEL  business 
and  its  need  for  flexible  quick  response  to  changing  situations,  thus 
often  complicating  orderly  long-term  planning* 
-Special  NFOIO-NSA  relationship  was  pointed  out  and  basic  difference 
between  OPINTEL  and  S&T. 
-The  problem  of  high  data  rate  collection  systems  for  which  adequate 
processing  and  analysis  support  have  not  been  provided  and  constant 
requirement  for  "playing  catch-up. M 
-The  importance  of  SOSOS,  as  the  Navy's  single  most  valuable  ASW  sensor, 
and  the  need  for  upgrading  in  the  face  of  smarter,  quieter  Soviet 
submarines. 
(4)  (U)  Change -of -Command .  The  ceremony  was  held  6  July  in  the  NIC-2 
large  conference  room  in  which  Captain  William  0.  Studeman,  USN,  relieved 
Captain  Thomas  A.  Brooks,  USN.  Official  party  included  Rear  Admiral  Sumner- 
Shapiro,  USN,  Director  of  Naval  Intelligence;  Rear  Admiral  John  L.  Butts,  USN, 
Commander,  Naval  Intelligence  Command  and  Commander  N.  L.  Cram,  Staff 
Chaplain,  Commander,  Naval  Security  Group  Command.

second  flight  of  the  Space  Shuttle  "Columbia"  (STS-2)  12  -14  November,  1981 ~ 
was  presented  to  the  Naval  Ocean  Surveillance  Information  Center  (NFOIO-02)  in 
recognition  of  the  significant  contribution  in  support  of  Space  Shuttle 
Support  Operations.  Authority:  Director,  DOD  Manager's  Space  Shuttle  Support 
Office,  Patrick  Air  Force  Base  letter  DDMS  of  17  November  1982. 
b.  (U)  Organizational  Changes 
(1)  (U)  Operations  Officer.  On  4  February  an  Operations  Officer fs 
position  was  established  to  serve   as  the  direct  representative  of  the 
Commanding  Officer  and  Executive  Officer  in  ensuring  that  the  command  was 
responsive  to  intelligence  production  requirements  and  all  tasks  levied  on  the 
Command. 
c.  (U)  Naval  Ocean  Surveillance  Information  Center  (NF0I0-02) 
(1)  (U)  OPELINT  Analysis  Branch  (NFO 10-20).   1982  continued  to  be  a 
period  of  growth  for  the  OPELINT  Branch.  The  remainder  of  the  approved 
civilian  billets  were  filled  which  allowed  sufficient  manning  for  an  ELINT 
analyst  in  each  of  the  NOSIC  real-time  watch  sections. 
(a)  (U)  In  May,  the  preliminary  test  and  evaluation  of  the  Naval 
ELINT  Analysis  Tool  (NEAT)  was  completed*  Results  of  the  test  were  very 
favorable  proving  the  NEAT  system  to  be  a  valuable  asset  for  ELINT  analysis. 
Testing  and  system  improvements  continued  throughout  1982  and  a  decision  was 
made  to  retain  the  NEAT  at  NFO  10  and  to  evolve  it  into  a  truly  operational 
system.  Two  large  steps  were  taken  toward  realizing  this  goal  with  the 
signing  of  a  purchasing  agreement  for  a  VAX-1 1/780  computer  and  the  letting  of 
a  contract  to  convert  the  NEAT  software  from  the  present  PDP  11/70  to  the  VAX 
11/780.   It  is  anticipated  that  the  NEAT  will  be  operational  on  the  VAX  in 
early  1983. 
(b)  (U)  The  Naval  Security  Group  Reserve  Unit  (CSG-106), 
established  in  October  1981,  continued  to  fill  billets  and  gain  operational 
experience  throughout  the  year.  The  unit  has  become  a  viable  asset  to  the 
OPELINT  Branch  and  continues  to  expand  its  operations.  The  reserve   analysts 
are  actively  involved  in  developing  new  analysis  techniques  and  augmenting 
onboard  analysts  with  the  tracking  of  high  interest  units. 
(2)  (U)  Merchant  Operations  Branch  (NF0I0-22).  In  November  1982  the 
Branch  was  reorganized  from  three  major  sections  (Warsaw  Pact,  Non-Warsaw 
Pact,  and  Fleet  Support)  to  two  sections  (0PINTEL  and  Maritime  In-Depth 
Analysis  Section  (MIDAS)).  The  0PINTEL  Section  included  for  watchstanders  (a 
Senior  Merchant  Analyst,  an  Arm3  Carrier  Analyst,  a  Research  Ship  Analyst,  and 
a  Fleet  Support  Analyst)  and  analysts  to  support  these  watchstanders.  The 
MIDAS  consisted  of  analysts  assigned  to  long-range  studies  of  geographic  areas 
or  activities  of  specific  ship  types.  Consequently,  the  Branch fs  history  is 
derived  from  the  former  organization  structure.
'«HW*C* 
3*    |I  During  1982,   the  Section  continued  to  provide  daily 
reporting  of  U.S.  Flag/U.S.  Controlled  merchant  ships  transiting  the  Red  Sea 
and  the  Bab-el-Mandeb  Straits-  in  response  to  a  CINCPACELT  tasking  in  November 
1981. 
£.     §gg  During  the  Falkland  Islands  conflict  between  Argentina 
and  the  United  Kingdom,   the  MOB  established  a  task  force  to  follow  the 
maritime  aspects  of  that  conflict.     A  24-hour  watch  was  established  to  screen 
message  traffic  and  publish  Significant  Mership  Activity  Supplement  (SHAS) 
messages  on  all  significant  activity  relating  to  the  conflict. 
5.  (0)  The  Section  continued  to  produce  the  weekly  Port 
Security  Alert  and  the  monthly  and  yearly  Port  Security  Summaries.     In 
addition,  a  comparison  between  BLOC  Shipping  to  the  U.S.   in  1981  with  that  in 
1980  was  produced  and  disseminated  to  recipients  of  the  Port  Security  Alert. 
This  comparison  was  also  published  in  the  NAVY  NEWS  LETTER. 
6.  (U)   In  March,   the  Section  responded  to  a  Congressional 
query  concerning  the  level  of  Soviet  and  Warsaw  Pact  shipping  which  trades 
between  the  U.S.  and  free-world  ports.     Information  provided  in  this  query  was 
for  a  three-year  period  between  1976-1981 •
W^f^ 
(c)  ^M  Fleet  Support  Section.  The  Section  provided  151  supports  - 
during  1982.  Although  the  number  of  tasks  increased  during  1982,  the  number  * 
of  man-hours  expended  decreased  due  to  an  Increased  emphasis  on  prioritization 
and  closer  liaison  with  the  Fleet  CMC's.  Specific  support  included: 
-  Individual  tailored  supports  to  U.S*  fleet  operations 
Combined  U.S. /Allied  fleet  operations 
ulssile  testing  operations 
  
missile  testing  operations 
Air  Force  air-to-air  missile  tests

-La  January,  information  on  the  threat  from  Soviet  SSBNs  to  the 
continental  U.S.  was  incorporated  into  NFOIO's  daily  reporting. 
-During  this  year,  significantly  streamlined  our  reporting 
procedures  in  terms  of  support  and  intelligence  feedback  to  our 
submarine  forces. 
e.   (U)  Definitive  Operations  Reports  Analysis  (NFOIO-04) 
(1)  (0)  The  DORA  data  base  and  master  microfiche  library  were 
maintained  at  a  level  current  with  analytical  input  while  production  and 
dissemination  of  regular  DORA  support  packages,  microfiche  libraries  and 
publications  remained  relatively  static  and  on  schedule.  Five  new  data  bases 
were  brought  on-line  for  in-house  use  or  to  enhance  existing  products. 
Existing  equipments  and  software  were  upgraded  for  enhanced  performance  and  to 
maintain  compatibility  with  a  newly  acquired  state-of-the-art  16  bit 
microcomputer  with  mass  storage  capabilities. 
(2)  (tf)  In  addition  to  routine  product,  the  division  continued  its 
support  to  the  fleets,  high  level  commands,  agencies,  and  intelligence 
analysts  by  responding  to  87  official  ad  hoc  requests  for  intelligence 
information  derived  from  the  DORA  data  base  and  microfiche  library.  208 
requests  for  information  processing  services  and  assistance  were  also 
satisfied;  including  advice,  hardware  and  software  support  for  new
microcomputer  Installations  at  NFOIO  Detachment  Newport  and  the  Kaval  Sec^ity^ 
Group  Activity,  Groton,  CT;  continuing  support  for  the  microcomputer^ ;  Vy^^^^

f.  (0)  Detachment  Newport  (NF0I0-05) 
(1)  (U)  The  NFOIO  Detachment  expanded  its  mission  during  1982  to 
Include  providing  intelligence  support  to  the  Center  for  Naval  Warfare  studies 
and  the  CNO-sponsored  Strategic  Studies  Group  (SSG)  In  addition  to  providing 
intelligence  support  to  the  Center  for  War  Gaming  (CWG)  and  the  Center  for 
Advanced  Research.  As  a  result  of  these  increased  responsibilities  $   the 
Detachment  personnel  allowance  is  being  increased  over  the  next  few  years  to  a 
total  of  eight  officers,  two  enlisted,  and  four  civilian  personnel  in  FY  8fl. 
In  the  interim  period,  a  GS-12  analyst  has  been  extended  and  a  1610  LCDR 
Cryptographic  Specialist  has  been  detailed  from  the  Center  for  War  Gaining  for 
full-time  duty. 
(2)  (U)  The  focus  of  the  Detachment  activities  continues  to  be  in  the 
area  of  war  gaming,  with  37  games  being  conducted  In  1982.  These  games 
represented  the  spectrum  from  small,  two-day  seminar  games  to  three  -week -long 
global  games  involving  several  hundred  participants.  The  installation  of  the 
new  computerized  Naval  War  Gaming  System  (NWSS)  at  the  Center  for  War  Gaming 
in  October  1982  will  allow  for  games  of  increasing  scope  and  flexibility  in  • 
the  future,  and  will  also  increase  the  requirement  for  detailed  intelligence 
data  and  data  management. 
(3)  CU)  In  addition  to  the  changes  indicated  above,  the  Detachment  is 
now  charged  with  providing  opposition  play  during  most  CWG  games.  This  is 
being  done  by  developing  a  "Red  Team"  to  match  each  specific  game  area  and 
game  sponsor's  objectives.  Letters  have  been  sent  from  the  President  of  the 
Naval  War  College  inviting  intelligence  and  area  specialists  from  DIA  and  the 
other  services  to  participate  in  "Red  Team"  play  for  future  games.  The 
nucleus  of  the  Navy  "Red  Team"  will  be  NFOIO  Det  Newport  supported  as  required 
by  other  NFOIO  analysts. 
(4)  (U)  The  focus  of  NFOIO  Reserve  Unit  0*102  in  Freeport,  Long  Island 
activities  also  changed  in  1982.  This  Unit  is  now  engaged  in  war  gaming  of 
their  own  to  support  this  Detachment's  requirements.  By  pre-gaming  certain 
scenarios,  this  reserve  unit  will  be  able  to  provide  insights  and  call 
attention  to  key  issues  for  further  detailed  examination  during  CWG  games.

efforts  were,   inter  alia,    to:

•Examine  and  document  Soviet  naval  exercise  activities,  through  ,-  v:' 
all-source  analysis,  to  discern  how  the  Soviet  leadership  intends  to

tactical  nuclear  warfare;  unconventional  warfare;  and  concealment, 
cover  and  deception  (CC&D)  activities  and  capabilities 
An  additional  assignment  added  in  mid-year  was  to  examine  the  feasibility  of 
producing  intelligence  reports  using  audiovisual  formats  such  as  film  or  video 
cassettes.  Production  of  the  initial  video  cassette  is  now  underway  on  the 
tentative  subject  of  wartime  missions  of  the  Soviet  Navy. 
(1)  (U)  A  new  billet  was  established  and  an  analyst  was  assigned  for 
analysis  and  production  in  the  field  of  mine  warfare  and  logistics.  A  second 
billet,  that  of  electronic  warfare  and  countermeasures  analysis,  was  also 
established  during  the  year  and  steps  were  being  taken  to  fill  this  important 
position  as  the  year  drew  to  a  close.  A  third  billet,  that  of 
chemical/biological/radiological  warfare  analyst,  was  requested  and  approved  for 
FY  83 •  However,  serious  personnel  problems  were  coped  with  during  the  entire 
year.  The  billet  of  the  Exercise  Analysis  Branch  Head  was  gapped  for  almost  six 
months.  Billets  for  NWP  managers  which  became  open  during  the  year  were  not 
filled  in  a  timely  manner,  resulting  in  NWP  production  delays.  At  the  year's  end, 
the  lack  of  a  Branch  Head  for  the  Warfare  Support  Analysis  Branch  continues  to 
limit  the  effectiveness  of  this  work  center,  as  do  the  several  analytical 
vacancies  of  this  Branch. 
(2)  (0)  The  relationship  with  KETRON,  wherein  contractor  personnel  assisted 
in  the  production  of  certain  sections  of  specific  Naval  Warfare  Publications  and 
other  documents,  terminated  in  1982.   It  had  been  running  continuously  since  1977 
under  the  ONR-sponsored  Naval  Intelligence  Tactical  Analysis  Program  (NITAP),  a 
joint  ONR-ONI  agreement.   It  was  judged  that  NFOIO  now  has  the  in-house  resources 
to  supplant  the  contractor  effort.

(7)  VB  Prior  to  and  following  the  SACLANT  MARINTCOM  Conference  in 
October,    several  allied  foreign  delegations  visited  NPOIO  for 
analyst-to-analyst  discussions • 
(8)      (U)   During  the  year,   six  naval  reserve  officers  completed  two-week 
active  duty  assignments  in  the  Warfare  Analysis  Division*     These  active  duty 
assignments  allowed  a  useful  exchange  of  ideas  with  naval  reserve  intelligence 
officers  and  enabled  a  major  project   to  be  undertaken  with  reservist  support  - 
an  effort  to  establish  and  maintain  an  ASW  tactical  data  base*
i„   (U)  Data  Services  Division  (NFO 10-08).  The  year  1982  was  a  significant 
year  in  the  history  of  the  Data  Services  Division.  The  Division  took 
progressive  action  in  two  directions:   (1)  the  procurement  and  implementation 
of  an  expanded  word  processing  capability  for  the  entire  NFOIO  intelligence 
analyst  population,  and  (2)  the  systematic  expansion  of  the  DP  software 
application  programs,  locally  called  "Analyst  Working  Filesn.  The  primary 
area  of  direction  in  1982  was  to  acquire  additional  computer  terminals  with 
both  word  processing  and  data  processing  capabilities.  Budgetary  constraints 
and  scale  of  economy  schedules  combined  to  enable  NFOIO  to  implement  a  2:1 
ratio  of  people  to  computer  and  introduce  personally  adaptable  AWFS.  With 
considerable  assistance  from  Naval  Reserve  units,  NOSIC  unit  0166 
and  NISC  unit  0166,  software  packages  were  developed  to  support  SCORE,  port 
visits,  patrols,  SNARE,  the  OSD  and  the  Merchant  Arms  Branch  of  the  NOSIC. 
These  programs  in  addition  to  the  funded  effort  with  CTEC  are  to  develop  the 
SRAS  program.  The  expanded  software  applications  capability  materialized  due 
to  the  efforts  in  convincing  the  MPS  PMO  and  the  CO,  NIPSSA  that  the 
conversion  of  the  NF0I0  Wang  contract  from  rental  to  "lease-to-ownerships"  was 
an  essential  step  in  the  cost  effective  strategy  recommended  by  the  NF0I0  Data 
Services  Division.  The  Data  Services  Division  in  1982  contributed 
significantly  to  the  future  of  NFOIO*  Not  only  did  the  Division  shadow  and 
scale  the  implementation  of  the  VS-100,  but  also  successfully  built  the 
framework  of  an  Automated  Message  Handling  System  (AMHS)  and  an  ability  to 
exchange  AMHS  information  between  AMHS  and  WP  or  DP.   Further  accomplishments: 
-Succeeded  in  initiating  a  comprehensive  training  program  for  DSD 
personnel  and  for  internal  NFOIO  training  on  terminal  capability  for 
almost  all  NFOIO  computer  systems    ^ 
-Initiatives  were  put  in  place  to  traitf  NFOIO  personnel  on  every 
terminal  type  and  applicable  software  'applications 
-Succeeded  in  implementing  a  telecommunication  flexibility  which  will 
allow  for  communications  connectivity  amongst  NFOIO  users,  NISC-71*  and 
CTF-168.  This  capability  will  greatly| enhance  intra-communication  and 
information  sharing  efforts         f

To  produce  finished  operational  intelligence,  including  indications 
and  warning,  ocean  surveillance  information,  and  in-depth  analysis 
of  Soviet  strategy,  doctrine,  tactics,  and  readiness  in  response  to 
requirements  of  JCS,  Department  of  the  Navy,  Defense  Intelligence 
Agency,  and  joint  commands;  to  provide  for  the  timely  dissemination

c.  (U)  Accomplishments .  The  following  accomplishments  are  in  addition  to 
those  discussed  in  subparagraph  I.e.  thru  1.i.  above: 
(1)   (0)  The  ability  of  NFOIO  to  perform- its  mission  has  improved 
significantly  as  a  result  of  the  consolidation  of  the  command  at  the  Suitland 
Federal  Complex  and  the  coincident  restructuring  of  the  organization.  As  a 
result  of  the  move  the  NFOIO  and  NAVINTCOM/NISC/NIPSSA  liaison  effort  and 
working  relationship  have  enhanced  the  Command's  production  product.  Albeit 
at  a  sacrifice  to  the  NFOIO/NSA  liaison  effort  .because  of  the  25-mile 
geographic  separation.
Greater  understanding  of  the  Soviet  wartime  concepts  of  operations  permitted 
providing  more  realistic  intelligence  support  to  strategic  and  tactical  war 
games  conducted  at  the  Naval  War  College.  Additionally,  this  focus  on  the 
actual  Soviet  readiness  posture  has  enhanced  the  capabilities  of  NFOIO  as  an 
I&W  Center  within  the  DOD  I&W  system. 
(3)  (0)  Monthly  Personnel  Meeting.  In  April  1982,  a  Command  Personnel 
Management  Committee  composed  of  Executive  Officer,  Operations  Officer, 
Division  Directors,  and  Personnel  Officers  was  established  to  advise/make 
recommendations  to  the  Executive  Officer  on  the  following  functions. 
-Plan  for  the  initial  assignment  of  new  personnel 
-Plan  for  the  rotation  of  civilian  and  military  personnel 
-Identify  critical  vacancies  and  make  recommendations  with  regard 
to  prioritization  of  hiring  and  filling  vacancies 
-Maintain  liaison  and  coordination  with  the  Training  Committee 
-Recommend  specific  training  requirements 
-Recommend  ways  to  improve  command  personnel  management • 
This  Committee  has  been  a  successful  tool  to  enhance  manpower  management. 
(4)  (U)  Realignment  of  the  Daily  NF0I0-02  Briefing.  On  19  July,  in 
order  to  enhance  management  production,  tasking,  watch  coordination, 
coordination  between  branches  and  front  office  requirements,  the  following 
modifications  to  the  morning  briefing  were  made: 
-On  Mondays,  Wednesdays,  and  Fridays  the  briefing  is  given  by  the 
Senior  Watch  Analyst  and/or  senior  representatives  from  each  watch 
panel,  discussing  the  highlights  of  events  that  have  occurred 
since  the  last  briefing.  These  briefs  are  for  the  Front  Office, 
Division  Directors,  and  a  few  others  for  the  primary  purpose  of 
ensuring  that  the  Command  is  properly  focusing  assets  against  the 
proper  current  significant  events. 
-On  Tuesdays  and  Thursdays  the  briefing  is  given  by  representatives 
from  each  watch  panel  discussing  events  that  have  occurred  since 
the  last  brief.  The  briefs  are  of  general  interest  to  Command 
personnel  and  attempt  to  raise  and  answer  questions  as  to  why /what 
is  the  significance/interface,  etc.
(7)  (0)  In  August  1982  the  Command  signed  a  contract  with  CTEC  Inc.  to 
enhance  the  utilization  of  the  ELINT  tracker  which  had  been  installed  and 
successfully  demonstrated  during  ET-82»  The  purpose  of  the  contract  is  to 
convert  the  NEAT  software  from  a  PDP  11/70  to  a  VAX  11/780  which  will  enable 
the  system  to  manipulate  more  data  and  be  totally  compatible  with  the 
IAIPS/Seawatch  III  architecture.  The  NEAT  system  (algorithms)  are  also  being 
manipulated  with  another  ELINT  Tracker  (TERESA)  in  order  to  determine  the 
optimum  ELINT  tracker  for  the  U.S.  Navy.  A  second  contract  was  executed  in 
August  with  CTEC  Inc.  to  enhance  the  prototype  SEAS  (Submarine  Readiness 
Analysis  System).  This  is  a  computerized  analytical  tool  geared  towards  the 
Soviet  in-area  submarine  problem.  Plans  for  the  future  call  for  intergration 
of  SRAS  with  other  prototype  submarine  analysis  tools. 
(8)  (0)  In  October  NF0I0  and  the  Department  of  Energy  (DOE)  reached  an 
agreement  by  which  DOE  would  provide  resources  to  NPOIO  to  accelerate  and 
enhance  NFOIO's  capability  to  monitor  and  report  on  high-interest  maritime  oil 
shipments.
