Now 44 8E0NET Memorandum ? UNITED STATES GOVERNM T MOM SU 3jECT: Jr. W. R. Shepardson Col* He W, Dix Jr.Varschingis Report on Scientific Section, UK. DATE: 3 January 1945 Attached is Mr. Marsching's report of his work in UK. He makes remarks on several situations and shows the operattons of the Scientifix Section, UK 1 as completed for part of October and ail of November. In regard to his recommendations I have checked with him on numbers one, two, and six and I believe that the headquarters in London holds more possibilities for such an office being more helpful than at Paris or elsewhere. This conclusion is made bearing in mind communications facilities and opportunity of obtaining quicker and taller information from the British and from the headquarters of other caantri4s, such as The Netherlands and Poland. Recommendetions three, four, eight, nine, ten appear satisfactory. Recommendation five Is billeted to be too broad unless exceptional diseretion Is employed Recommendation seven and its sub-heads appears satisfactory from experience and has the opportunity of being exceptionally helpful under proper guidence. It is believed that the technical section,-- its establishment, growth, and 11441 should be under the guidance of Colonel Chittiek and vithIn the definite responsibility of the SI head in London. Mir alla IMO Wit MI* . .... Aft** and Toledo. Papers on these topics in London are now in heady of Ca 'in Wroz who tnows very litt14 about them or their k *Inds. non Colonel itsd4ox left London he turned them over to t and with Vt* nortmes transfer to Paris the papers were r to Mr* Tarsching who has left them with Capten 1tr026 that Colonel Chittiek be given enough Iglus& to, take eor* of these two topics and to deters. no ttong felth these tJpies for ITO purposes* faaa0-? 144*.iligt 116a Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/26: CIA-RDP13X00001R000100340002-5 A11' I- Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/26: CIA-RDP13X00001R000100340002-5 II ? v; B1416111111111111101111111111111111111111111bm.41111111111111 -114 .? * 4". ; Memorandum UNITED STATES GO Camel, at.

On 16 Septen- ber I was placed in command of an &CI unit and ordered to Nancy, arriving ther* the morning after its liberation. The Unit re- salzed there for two days, operating as part as m T Force De- tachmotnt and then rsturned t uxembourg.

This is eloquent testimony of the elm, plated upon SCI operations by the 0-2 Sections of 12th Amy Group and of the Armies.
