The Office of Training hes completed a survey of the training
implications reflected in the FT 19511 DD/P Cold-War Programs.
Several trends have been identified which may result in an increase
of training requirements for certain categories of instruction. Spe-
cifically, there may be an increase in the requirements for covert
training generally, and for instruction in Anti-Communist operations,

ments can be more accurately reviewed following the receipt of DO/P
estimates of training requirements for FT 1951. now in Process of
