Approved For Release 2004/07/08 :ZW E8p R01720 R00"00050017-0 6 February 1967 MEMORANDUM FOR: Mr. Robert W. Komer Special Assistant to the President SUBJECT : Revolutionary Development Cadre Teams 1. Forwarded herewith as Attachment I is a list of the Revolutionary Development Cadre Teams by Province as of 1 January 1967 and the number of personnel assigned each Province from Class III, as requested by Mr. Holbrooke. This tabulation represents the latest available information regarding the provincial deployment of the RDC and was forwarded to us in a 25 Jan 1967 cable from Saigon. 2. In regard to the column entitled "lass iII," we have been informed by Saigon that the personnel figures shown here cannot, at this time, be broken down into 59-man teams. Most of the personnel graduated in this class will be used as fillers or 19-man augmentation increments to PATS, and the remainder will form new teams. We can state, however, that after the final breakdown of Class III is completed, there will be 394 teams as opposed to the 1 January-reported total of 362. When the specific breakdown of teams is obtained from the Ministry, we will revise and update this initial summary for your office. GEORGE W.
