SUBJECT: Letter of Appreciation for
1. I should like to take this opportunity to'express the
appreciation of the Evaluation and Plans Staff for the assist-
ance and cooperation we have received from
a computer programmer in the Message Data Communications Activity
section of the OIT/General Operations Group.
2.I Iplayed a major role in straightening out and
expediting the automated dissemination of intelligence reports and
operational cables to the EP which prepares
semiannually for the DDO and other senior DO managers evaluations
of DO intelligence reporting on selected countries and international
issues. Because new topics are selected for each evaluation, EPS=
requirements for incoming reports and cables change substantially
every six months. The changeovers used to take several weeks to
implement, and IG often continued to receive mountains of cable traf-
fic that it no longer needed, or failed to recover many intelligence
reports essential to the effective conduct of the evaluation process.
3. After discussed its special needs directly with members
of MDCA about a year ago, familiarized himself with the
nature of cable requirements and devised a system for handling
its changing, short-term needs. Three subsequent changeovers have
proceeded increasingly smoothly, with accomplishing the
most recent one within about 24 hours even though he was heavily
involved in programming the traffic needs of a new DO operational
component. His personal attention to our information needs and his
effectiveness in ensuring that they are met have greatly facilitated
the work of EPS EPS would therefore like t9 advise you of his
excellent performance on our behalf.
