Dear e]].y:
We are planning the activation of Detachment B as an
administrative and organizational entity an or about 7 May 1956.
At that time the Detachment Commander would assume command of
personnel assigned to his unit and be responsible to our Head-
quarters for the continued operation of his unit.
As was done with Detachment A, we would appreciate an
identification of your personnel who will be assigned to
Detachment B as soon as convenient. We would expect that a
general Supervisor could be soon identified and as the several
crews become trained and ready to take up their Detachment B
duties, these personnel would also be considered as falling
under the direct control of this supervisor and, through him.
the Commanding Officer of Detachment B.
We would appreciate you notifying the Detachment
Commanding Officer at the Ranch of such personnel assignments
while at the same time advising our Headquarters.
Since rely,
/s/ Dick (Bissell)
