Intelligence Requirements on US Citizens
1. On 15 February, IAC representatives and interested
State and Defense personnel met with the Secretary to discuss
the Joint Staff request that the I-AG consider steps which would
aid the US to determine the status or the recovery of missing
persons held in Sino-Soviet Bloc countries.
2. The immediate problem, reduced to its essentials, is
to get to the State Department Prisoner Officer and to the Defense
Department Prisoner Officer, who are the responsible action
officers, information from any and all sources on specific
individuals, which when assembled and analyzed could lead to the
determination of their status.
3. It was agreed that little can be done by the intelligence
community until precise requirements are drawn up by the State
and Defense action officers.
4. Therefore, pending further IAC action, the State De-
partment Prisoner Officer and the Defense Department Prisoner
Officer are being requested to draw up jointly a statement of their:
a. Requirements for the dissemination and exchange
of intelligence;
b. General requirements for information; and,
c. Special requirements for information (specific
individuals or information peculiar to particular areas).
