The Allied forces on.tuc beachhead were supported by agents, operating out of Algiers as well as London, who provided intelligence on enemy order of battle and contributed to tae gredt eruption of sabotace and open fighting which impeded tne Germom attempt to r& for an effective counter blow. Certain iterls of intelligence in northern France, such as tne initial identification of the Lehr Panzer Division, made by a Sussex agent, were evidently of such importance as to kindle considerable enthusiasm at SNAPP. At tae same time reports from OSS agents In central and southern France were said by SHAEF to be its principi basis of information on tae strategi:z situation in those areas. The SI and SO fieLd staff_ at First Army Headquarters on t4.e beachhead worked togetner in developing the intelli- gence whicn flowed In froa agents in the field without regard ft3r LI:: niceties of branch functions.

Agents were brought from England into enemy territory at a rate which by the end of June had approximately doubled the OBS strength in the field a month earlier. U.S. Sussex agents (SI) were covering 14 of the 25 points assi6ned by 5jii0W, and SO agents here working with 20 netl.ork:; and with four Allied misoionb to the Maquis.

The enrollment in the Branch was fairly uni- form during the month. The fluctuations that did occur were due to the raid-month drop in Communications and OG trainees. 2. In response to a request to set up an assessment school in BTO, three members of the Washington testing staff have been offered on a permanent basis and the Chief instructor of the Assessment Program for temporary duty. In this case it has been decided to retain this staff as members of Schools 14 Training Branch. A simi- lar demand for an Assessment School in SI1AC has restated in the detachment of appropriate personnel who are at present awaiting transportation to that theater. '2 A JIL pi-uw.cvm has arise with the retluests from thil various tneaters? principally ETO, for trained personnel. Since Schools and Vesining has no allotment for MO, it has been necessary to transfer training instructors to SI or to the Chief of Mission, thus releasing carofuLly trained personnel. 4. The total of students and trainees for all areas during June was 586 and the total of assessment students in the three schools was 4810 making a grand total. of 1067.

A-2 (75 men) is used for basic military training for men without such training from the Army. The policy has been laid down that no class would start without a miniui. of 25 men. At the present time such a minimum is not avail- able for training and therefore the next class has been postponed. a-ka (42 men) is for training of OGIs. During June most of the men nad completed training and were held in the area awaiting transportation. They were 1,..r.nlinipti in building bridges, ranges and similar courses for future trainees. kreej-5 (30 men) is used for the advanced SO course. Men who have completed training are transferreu to Area F.
