OBJEC T
1. The purpose of this menorandum is to provide guidance for reporting
on Soviet and Satellite military and assistant military attaches and military
members of Soviet missions, either assigned to, or passing through a country.
GIN Ei -L
2. Sporadic and inconsistent reporting on this subject in the past
indicates a nec.d for specific guidance. In many instances, data received
have been neither current nor sufficiently detailed, as evidenced by the
following illustrations:
a. attache reports have frequently referred to personalities by
surname only. Positive identification is seldom possible without full
name and rank.
b. Descriptive and background information is often omitted. This
has occurred even when the reporting officer has had personal contact with
his subject.
c. A foreign government report concerning approximately twelve
Soviet Attaches and members of military missions was received recently.
In all but one instance, the date of identification was from six to
eighteen months more recent than the latest available information on these
officers forwarded. by United States Army ,attaches.
3. The best available sources of information include personal
observation, the press, and the lists of accredited attaches published by
the Foreign Liaison Sections in many countries.
