MEMORANDUM FOR THE CHAIRMAN, JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF

During Septenber and October, I sent to the joint Chiefs of

Staff, for their reviews draft memoranda to the President outlining

the military force structure which I proposed for incorpuration in

the FY 65 Defense Budget. I have now completed my review of the

Chiefs' comments on my proposals. At Tab A are tables sumarizine

my final force structure recormendations. At Tab i is a summary of

my initial proposals

the comments of the Chiefs on these proposals,

and the changes which I made in the light of tieir advice.

I believe that in every majos respect the proposed force

structure reflects the views of the majority of the Chiefs.

There-

force I should like to include a statement similar to the following

in the letter by which I transmit the FY 65 Budget to the President:

"In developing the program and reviewing the budget pruposals,

I have had the continuing counsel and assistance of the coint

Chiefs of Staff, Although the force structure does not include

all the forces reconnended by each of the Services, the Joint

Chiefs of Staff agree that the progran supported by this budget

will further increase our combat effectiveness and will prov

in a high state of readiness, the forces which we require for

defense of the vital, interests of the United States."

Would it be possible for you in let me know by December 5 whetner

such & statement is agreeable to the Chiefs?
