THE NATIONAL WAR COLLEGE
WASHINGTON 25, D. C.
Dear Mr. McCone:
5 September 1963
We are delighted that you have accepted the invitation of
Vice Admiral Rose and Lieutenant General Griswold to address the
members of the Industrial College of the Armed Forces and The
National War College on Wednesday, 9 October. This is to advise
you of the administrative arrangements for your visit.
Since you have been a guest lecturer at the College, it is
unnecessary for me to describe in detail the procedure for our morn-
ing session. I need only to remind you that your lecture is scheduled
at 9:00 a. m. , to be followed by the customary question period and the
discussion group meeting. Brief intermissions will follow the lecture
and question period. We hope that you will be able to spend the entire
morning with us and also participate in the discussions.
We would be pleased to have you as our guest at a luncheon
which will be scheduled at noon at the Officers' Club at Fort McNair.
A representative group from the class and faculty of the two Colleges
will also attend the luncheon.
A draft copy of the course syllabus is inclosed for your in-
formation. The topic for the morning of 9 October is outlined on
pages 33 through 38,
From time to time, a few specially selected guests from
various government agencies are authorized to attend lectures at
The National War College, subject to the speakers' concurrence.
These guests will have TOP SECRET clearance, as will the entire
audience of the College. If you have any objection to such attendance,
please let me know.
You should have no concern as to how freely you may speak
during your lecture, inasmuch as all remarks will be held in strict-
est confidence. One., of the key policies of the Colle
e since it

This policy has proven highly successful and is zealously guarded. It
is outlined on page 9 of the inclosed pamphlet, "Information for Guest
Speakers."

We will prepare any maps, graphs, charts or other visual
materials required, if you will let me know.
In order that General Griswold and Admiral Rose may have
the opportunity to have a brief visit with you before the lecture, I
suggest that you plan to arrive at the College about 8:40 a. m. If you
will advise me where you wish to be met, I shall be happy to send a
car to bring you to the College on the morning of your lecture. A.
member of the faculty will act as your escort.
Inclosed is a requisites form for your convenience. We
would appreciate receiving it at the earliest practicable date. May I
ask you also to send us two copies of your current biography.
I wish to reiterate the assurance that anything you say here
will be held in strictest confidence.
It will be a great pleasure to welcome you to the two Col-
leges on 4 October.
Sincerely yours,
