Colonel George Cranston, USAF
Dear George:
For your contribution to the Step One
Committee's paper, all congratulations. I under-
stand from sources of highest reliability that yours
was the spirit that got the project off the ground
and flew it to destination. It is a splendid
accomplishment which, for my moneys represents one
of the most significant advances in intelligence
analysis of the last few years.
