MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
VIA: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
FROM: John F. Blake
Deputy Director for Administration
7'7- a7 Of
REFERENCE: Your Comments on Routing Sheet on Memo to
DDCI from DDA, dated 18 April 1977,
Subject: Quotas for the Armed Forces
Schools
1. Action Requested: This memorandum requests that
you restore CIA participation in the Armed Forces Staff
.College (AFSC).
2. Background: Our experience in sending CIA per-
sonnel to the Armed Forces Staff College for many years has
led us to conclude that it is a valuable short-term and
cost-effective training opportunity, particularly for those
employees who have dealings with the military. AFSC at-
tendance provides CIA employees with a good knowledge of how
the Department of Defense and the military services function.
We do not consider the AFSC to be in any way
competitive with the senior war colleges. At least five
Offices in the Directorate of Intelligence and the Direc-
torate of Administration make profitable use of this course
for their mid-level employees who might not be candidates
for the more senior schools.
3. Recommendation: In view of the unique training
opportunity that the AFSC offers, I recommend that you
approve continuing participation of CIA personnel at the
present level of eight employees per year.
