Dear Dr. Thayer:
Thank you for your letter of 2 February and your interest
in the National Foreign Assessment Center,
We would be delighted to visit with you when you are in
Washington. Your suggestion of the morning of Friday,
21 March (10:00 am) is good.
I have asked an Assistant National
:Intelligence Officer, to host the meeting. is
very knowledgeable on Indochina matters and will probably ask
other interested analysts to attend. When you arrive at the
Agency, have the receptionist call him on extension 7301.
Hope you have an enjoyable trip,

Dear Mr, Rose,
I shall be visiting Washington, D.C. in March of this year
to attend the annual meeting of the Association for Asian
Studies, In this connection I was wondering if I might ask for
your assistance in meeting members of your Agency concerned
with following current developments in Indochina. In 1972 I
was accorded the privilege of meeting with
and his assistant,
I have in mind a discussion on the following topics: (1)
Vietnam's foreign policy goals; (2) Vietnam's economy; (3) the
Soviet-Vietnam relationship; (4) military assistance to Vietnam
and (4) the Vietnam People's Army, In looking at my schedule
(copy enclosed) I suggest the morning of Friday y Mar..,'.
I would, of course, be op-en-f-6 other suggestions. I may be
contacted at the address indicated on my schedule.
The purpose of my visit to the United States is to deliver
a paper on "The Indochina Conflicts and Australia" to a panel
on "The International Implications of the Indochina Conflicts",
The panel will be held on the afternoon of Saturday, March 22nd.
The AAS conference is being held at the Washington Hilton.
Although we have corresponded in the past, please note
that I am an American citizen permanently resident in Australia
-where I am employed as a Lecturer in Politics at The Royal
Military College - Duntroon, Australia's equivalent of West
Point, I have a research andpublication interest in contemporary
Indochinese politics.
Sincerely,
