Mr. of LAS, in their
meeting with Mr. DD/P Training Officer, on 12 October
1959. Mr. began our meeting by noting an apparent tempo-
rary breakdown in communication between our Registrar and the Africa
Division: apparently (it is alleged) Africa Division had entered no
students in the AAO Africa South of the Sahara because it was un-
aware that this course was scheduled (no Bulletin to the Africa Division?) .
Actually, five persons are currently scheduled for field assignments in
that area, but their training and processing schedules are filled. Next,

confirmed his U11UCrstandin with LlR L11CLL an Intro
uct
went on to mention that he was looking into the requirements for the
Overseas Effectiveness should be run during the first two weeks of
December, 1959, with students to be enrolled probably as follows:
FE-5, EE-3, NE-2 or3, WE-2, SR- ?,Africa -0, FI- 1,
PP - 1, 10 - ? . This "trial run" will determine whether or not DD/P
will request future presentations of this course. Mr. then 25X1
Course. the
25X

Operations Course, a possible requirement for a ~operations
course, and in this vein noted that he was working on a plan to present
to Mr. Bissell which would call for more definite programming of train-
25X1 ing within the Clandestine Services and, in turn, more firm requirements
to be levied upon OTRO offered PPS' assistance in this regard,
in the interest of serving our mutual objectives. We then proceeded
to review the memorandum of transmittal of our area training staff study,
25X1 and the basic recommendations of the memorandum. In sum, it appears
that Mr. "buys" these recommendations, will secure DD/P
approval, and, in any event, reply to DTR in the very near future.
There followed an inconclusive discussion of language training, but
25X1 it is understood that will support our stepped-up language
25X1 testing proposal and also the proposed survey of language requirements
which) I is organizing.
