The choice of 20 April as the first day of the . 25X1A course will enable OSI and 0 to designate instructors to parti- cipate in the course. The OSI instructors will submit lesson plans on their particular units of instruction and will meet with Stan according to the plan described in WAR No. 8. This is our position to date: OSI is satisfied with the 12- days scheduled for its contribution (the 12' da s includes the visit to the Douglas missile plant at Charlotte, N.C.); it concurs in the syllabus with minor changes to be made known to Stan on Thursday, 12 March. 0 approved 25X1A the 22 days scheduled for its contribution (the 2 days includes 1 day for a case and problems); it concurs in the syllabus as noted earlier; it approves the outline of operational methods. Stan has completed his draft paper on nuclear energy; the paper has been edited, typed, reproduced and will be forwarded to OSI for its comments. Stan is now extracting pertinent data from an Air Force manual on guided missile systems based on the manual and other sources. Both papers will be incorporated in the course as required reading. The purpose of these papers will be to familiarize the student with the production of nuclear weapons and with the nature of guided missile systems. Upon receipt of OSI comments, we will edit the syllabus incorporating the suggested changes.

Bill turned over to me his file on the proposal. Our approach to the course is to begin by producing a draft syllabus that will incorporate the several suggestions received from various senior CS officials and .,,.. other subject matter that is b nt. The syllabus then will be circulated throw o senior officers of his selection for reaction Armed with this information we can then proceed to plan and implement the program. I still feel that weekends at represent the most efficient approach. U. OTHER ITEMS A.
