Ass ant Director, OSA
=MOCK Missile Testing at The Pacific
Missile Range
This memorandumyour information.
Aeference is made t4 dated 31 December
1963, which outlines plans iur eating of the ASG-18
GAR-9 at the Pacific Missile Range (PMR), and documents
preparations to date for this activity. Since August
1963, SS/OSA has closely monitored developments at the
Pacific Missile Range. I might add that personnel at
WPAFB have been most cooperative in coordinating all aspects
of! Security significantewith this office, and the above
referenced TWX presents an accurate picture of the current
situation.
During visits to the 144R and\
lareas of con-
cern explored included co unications, hangar and emergency
landing facilities, optical coverage, and cover. The
usual amount of problems consistent with an operation of
this magnitude were uncovered. However, the major ones
have been resolved and this office considers itself prepared
to support the activity should an approval for commencement
he granted. It is planned to have a Security representative
la placel and possible at the PR
itself, during all missile tests. All phases of the first
"est would be very closely monitored.
4. The only personnel cleared at present at PMU are
c Commanding Officer, the Range Director, the Range
operation* Officer, and his deputy. All are cleared at a
W.-2 level. No further clearances are expected. Howeve
it is believed that WPAFB will soon recommend hat the above
?four be upgraded to 0-3 for a visit o familiarize
them thoroughly win all ramlficatii u ne program.
