ADVISORY GROUPS AND 
MIS-
SIONS.— (a) It is the sense of Congress that the need for large United 
States military assistance advisory groups and military aid missions in 
foreign countries has diminished substantially during the last few 
years. In the words of the Peterson Task Force Report on International 
Development, 'The United States now can reduce its supervision and 
advice to a minimum, thus encouraging progress toward self-reliance. 
- 
, 
United States military missions and advisory groups should be con-
solidated with other elements in our overseas missions as soon as 
possible.' 
"(b) In accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this 
section, the total number of United States military personnel assigned 
and detailed, as of September 30,1971, to United States military assist-
ance advisory groups, military missions, and other organizations of 
the United States performing activities similar to such groups and 
missions, shall be reduced by at least 15 per centum by September 30, 
1972, but every effort should be made to effect an aggregate reduction 
of 25 per centum by September 30,1972. 
"SEC. 513. MILITARY ASSISTANCE AUTHORIZATIONS FOR THAILAND.— 
After June 30, 1972, no military assistance shall be furnished by the

try unless that assistance is authorized under this Act or the Foreign 
Military Sales Act.

" (1) to deposit in a special account established by the United States
