2. Suggestions and Awards
The Suggestion Awards Committee referred a newly received
suggestion for review and comment. The suggestion once again pro-
poses that the Office of Training establish correspondence courses in
which both domestic and overseas personnel may enroll in courses
designed to meet the needs of employees who have had limited training
in intelligence activities. A reply was returned to the Suggestion
Awards Committee informing the Committee that the Office of Training
could not establish such a program within the present personnel and
budgetary limitations. Our reply further recommended that this sug-
gestion be forwarded for information and comment to the DD/P Training
Officer.
3. Global War Plan
Reviewed draft Annex F, Operational Records and Pouch Communi-
cations, to Global War Plan, dated 14 January 1959. We feel that there
should be an additional paragraph added to this Annex to read somewhat
as follows:
RID will determine the training requirements in terms of
numbers and skills required to staff the wartime organiza-
tion and place such requirements on the Office of Training
for fulfillment.
Reply was forwarded to SPA-DD/S .
With the addition of the above paragraph, OTR concurs in the draft.
