mer against warcraft, the joint
Arny-Navy task force said:
with security a matter of great
interest and concern to the Con-
gress and to the joint chiefs of staff
it will be controlled best by careful
indoctrination and briefing of the
accredited representatives of the
press who can accompany the ex-
petition and by limiting the ma
terial to which they have access.
"This does not mean that they
are to be bottled up on the press
ships.
ut is planned to give fullest op-
portunity to cover all phases of the
operation which proper security will
permit. In general, they will be
permitted to write freely and with
out censorship of all they see. 9th

ileges for correspondents will be
approximately the same as that &C
