McMahon Deputy Director for Operations SUBJECT: Use of NBC Video Tape "Spying for Uncle Sam" as DO Training Film ACTION REQUIRED: As recommended At a recent DDO staff meeting C/IMS, suggested 28 March 1978 and e usea as a training tiim 25X1 A to be shown to DO case officer trainees and also to their wives if at all possible. I agree with this suggestion and recommend that you contact the Pictorial Services Branch of the Office of Central Reference, where I understand a copy of the tape is available. The film should be presented in a seminar-type situation permitting senior officers and, if at all possible their wives, to add perspective to the remarks by and to place them in a proper overall context. a ance comments are very definitely called for regarding the moral issues and frustrations which case officers and their wives must resolve. It also would provide a useful introduction to the supporting roles which wives play. `.v 25X1 A 25X1 A E2 IMPDET CL BY - 25X1- Approved For Release 2002/01/24: CIA-RDP81-00142R000500040003-3 n-.,:CLASSIFIED El INTERNAL ^ COi~IF' ENTI L ^ SECRET -Fur R - 2R - ROUTING AND RECORD SHEET -L- SUBJECT: (Optional) I ' Use of NBC Video Tape "Spying for !~ ~: Y Uncle Sam" as DO Training Film 17 APR 1978 25(1A Approved For Release 2002LQ11241: CIA-RDFP81-00142R000500040003-3 _,_ ,&. __.
