The program must be preserved by ensuring personnel have long-term assignments and personal anonymity. d. The effort must be kept small (11 sounded too large). Specific faces and numbers are subject to negotiation based on perceived DIA requirements as determined by Dr. Vorona. e. Dr. Vorona (ond TE |}: - representative) will coordinate with CENTER personnel the transfer of Operational, training, and research and development (R&D) Functions with the goal of maintaining continuity. fF. Dr. Vorona stated that maintaining personnel and offices at Ft. Meade would be desirable. g. Personnel assigned to DIA will initially be in TIARA billets and operationally under the control of AT as opposed to DT (Dr. Vorona's office). h. Dr. Vorona will maintain overall oversight responsibility within DIA for both operational and R & D aspects. i. Plans are to establish a "high level" subcommittee from the intelligence community to provide centralized tasking and evaluation of the operational effort. 3. (S/CL-3/NOFORN) The meeting ended with a spirit of cooperation and enthusiasm for the future of psychoenergetic operations and research. The intent of all parties concerned is clear, but the administrative arrangements required to carry out such an intent are monumental in scope. Will the Army (ACSI/INSCOM?) agree to provide "overage billets" to DIA? Can (presently trained, reliable) military personnel be assigned on a long term basis and with personal anonymity to DIA without damage to career status? Will present personnel volunteer for assignment to a DIA psychoenergetic program? Can DIA make arrangements with HQ, Ft. Meade to use present INSCOM facilities? These questions and more must still be resolved. 2 Incl pb ds ty 7. as LTC, CENTER * LANE Project Manager Approved For Release sooo bee RET, 00788R001500100009- 7 NOT RELEASABLE TO FOREIGN NATIONAL
