SUBJECT : Procedures to be Followed in the Event of an
Aircraft Loss over Hostile Territory
25X1X7
1. Pursuant to your memorandum of 9 April 1956, the procedures
outlined in the attachment hereto have been discussed with NACA and
Headquarters, USAF. While minor amendments have been made as a result
of these discussions and recent negotiations the
attached paper remains substantively the same as the draft copy for-
warded to you on 27 April and subsequently incorporated in the Cover
Annex of the Operations Order.
2. Both USAF and NACA PIO contacts concur in the procedures
as they now stand. However, since it is recommended that the pro-
posed releases to be made after hostile press radio or diplomatic reaction
be issued by the Department of State, the attached document` should be
coordinated as soon as possible with State Department public relations
contacts.
3. With your approval of the proposed procedures and releases,
the undersigned will undertake to get State Department concurrence
through whatever channels you recommend.
