ME' !ORA!WDUM FOR: Director, Defense intelligence Agency
Deputy Director for Intelligence, CIA
SUBJECT: Military Costing Review Board
1. I am in receipt of a Memorandum of Understanding between
DIA and CIA on setting up a Military Costing Review Board. This
memorandum is to urge you to add a "devil's advocate" to that
Board.
2. As constituted the Board is composed of representatives
of the costing activity. I cast no aspersions on their intentions,
but must point out that all will be inclined by reason of position
and bureaucratic pressures to defend rather than critique methods
and results. The board needs at least one "atheist" in addition
to the true believers. I have a nominee if this suggestion meets
with your approval.
