Wbitneyts office ' in regard to the questions which had been raised by G-3 as to the assignment of 068 slots to the Air . - Forces flor the purpose of activating the initial -flight, including 15 officers and 35 enlisted men, and the possible activation at a future time of a full squadron. Colonel Maury took us to see Colonel Ladd, who is the G-1 for that division of the Air Forces. I explained to Colonel Ladd that we wished to cooperate in every way, and that our desire for having this lift available to us in China was so that we would be able to do our job of intelligence, target and rescue work, etc. for the Air Forces; but that in view of the relatively small TO which we had, we coi4d not permanently give up these slots without impairing our ability to do the job for them. The upshot was that Colonel Ladd agreed that the flight would be activated with Air Forces slots. He stated that it would of course be strictly an Air Force Land Rescue Unit but that it could be used by OBS, in addition, if and to the extent desired by the Theater Commander. believe this i$ a happy solution since the result in the field would have been the same whether we had provided slots or not. The meeting ended on the most friendly terms. This memorandum of course should serve to release the slots which had been earmarked for this flight back to the Director's pool. - ? , J._ ? - ' - r ' - ? 4Ylv ' ; 5 41: 1 .V - 'N ?

DATE: 1 September l94431 (7?e, The attached progress report of PPS (personnel pick-up system) is forwarded for your information. The advantages to be gained by the simplification and safe operation of a system of this kind are readily apparent. This equipment will be highly useful as rescue equipment for personnel downed in isolated and remote areas where overland means of transportation are non-existent or will result in weeks of travel in unfriendly territory, or under unfavorable climatic conditions which may result in loss of personnel. The simplified pick-up system can be a very valuable weapon to OSS for removal a' agents from enemy territory, etc. The Office of Strategic Services, through this office, has sponsored the refinement and simplification of this system which was first successfully demonstrated by Lt. Doster of OSS more than a year ago at Wight Field. The system is now ready for final proving, namely the actual pick-up of personnel. Volunteers for this work are solicited. It is believed that the persennel who volunteer for this work should spend some time at Wright Field in an orientation and familiarization period with this system before actual trials are made. It is requested that personnel in your department be canvassed for volunteers for this work. Volunteers for this work, with approval of their department heads, are asked to contact the undersigned at extension 641. At ?BERT S. QUI Lt. Colonel, A. C. OSS Air Officer %et - 40- 40.o.

The All American pick-up unit, which has been used by the duPont organization for their mail and cargo pick-up service for.a period of over three years, has a direct application to OW uses, and it is suggested that a minim= of four (4) Model 3.5-B pick-up units (capable of man pick-up) be procured for use tTOSS organizations in the Theaters. These =its to be installed in tactical aircraft, B-25, B-261 B-17? which are available in most Theaters of Operations. These units are to be used for cargo and dispatch pick-up from agents in enemy territory in either day or night operation. Putiture use of this equipment can be adapted to personnel pick-up after a training period on cargo and dispatch pick-ups and after further refine- ment for the man pick-up operation by Wright Field. 2. Procurement of this equipment, as advised by All Ameri- can Aviation, Inc., Wilmington, Delaware, will take 120 days from receipt of order and priority for this equipment. During this time, the winch operators (key man in successful pick-up) to attend a training course given by An American on operation, maintenance, and installation of this equipment in various air- craft. These operators will be thoroughly trained when equipment is available and should be sent to the various Theaters with the equipment. 3. Miscellaneous Equipment Branch, Equipment Laboratory, Engineering Division, Materiel Command, Wright. Field, suggests that procurement of this equipmeat be routed through their office as a means of consolidating various other agencies' requirements for this equipment and presenting the manufacturer with but one- request for this type equipment. ?

If it were possible to perform a similar operation at night ths value of the information which could be brought back from behind enemy lines would be very great. The British are attempting to perfect this technique, and have gone far enough to indicate that such an operation is feasible. In general, they do it by putting a light at the top of each pole and putting another light at the same height 50 yards or so beyond the poles and in line with the left-hand pole. However, they are hardicapped at the moment by lack of equipment', 4.
