SECRET
MEMORANDUM FOR: DIVISION AND STAFF CHIEFS, AND
HISTORICAL OFFICERS
SUBJECT Distribution of Clandestine Services
HistcSries: Their Control and Use
1. This memorandum is a notice of distribution of
cataloged CS Historical Papers. Similar memoranda will
be issued in the future advising you of completed Historical
Papers, noting subject and office of control. The titles
themselves may alludelto Clandestine Services techniques
or sensitive activities even though details are not evident.
It is requested therefore, that you route this list only
to your key staff, group and branch officers and that the
listing then remain with your Historical Officer for future
reference. Each succeeding memorandum will be cumulative
and upon its receipt the Historical Officer should have
the earlier list destroyed.
2. All cataloged; CS Historical Papers are indexed.
They may be identifiedand located for reference by con-
tacting the CS Historical Board (1 H 51 25, x6907), or
the HS/CSG (1 D 27, x5963). All papers will be released
by the controlling office for use on a need-to-know basis.
The controlling office; will possess the prime copy thus
making it possible to reproduce good copy of any segment
of a paper. Such action may be warranted in lieu of
releasing the entire paper, since other parts may be of
such a nature that they should not be released to the
requestor.
3. It is anticipated that these historical papers
will be used for (1) briefing of officials, (2) supporting
the requirements of senior officials, (3) contributing to
future plans and operations, (4) conditioning changes in
Agency operational and:administrative tactics and policy,
(5) summarizing past experiences for new chiefs of stations,
and staff, division and branch officers. Also, with proper
sterilization, they will be available for filling the needs
of CS training courses as examples and case histories or
serving as the basis for broader disseminations of particu-
larly poignant activities through the Studies in Intelligence.
