? Rich has provided Carlos a strawman version of the SDI study. Carlos
subsequently advised Rich that he expects to complete his administrative
duties this week, become a charter member of OSWR's newly-formed Strategic
Defense Center, and be able to spend full time on the CIPC study. They
agreed that in li ht of the ongoing Community coordination of the PPS
study and nability to get to the drafting of key sections of the
strawman, the earliest the working group could get together to hammer out
a working draft would be 30 September. Rich has sent out a memorandum to
the working group to that effect. Rich and Carlos plan to finish the
drafting and coordination of the working group report by the end of
October for consideration at a November CIPC meeting.

? A short paper identifying the key intelligence gaps in supporting U.S.
forces in the central NATO front was completed for the chairman of the
Force Multiplier working group.
? Current effort focuses on gaining a solid understanding of how the RAND
war-game (IDAHEX) works, i.e., what variables it accommodates and how it
does so. As has been noted, RAND is very interested in the question of
the effect of intelligence as battle performance, and it is hoped this
war-game might, with modification, provide a vehicle for analyzing this
question.

? The working group met on 12 September to review the draft study.
Generally, it was agreed that it was workable and that progress was being
made. A major stumbling block is DIA's insistence that the term
"contingency operations" be changed. To accommodate DIA and a few others,
some recasting will be needed and specific word changes have been
requested by 19 September. Paul and Tony plan on turning the comments
around quickly, and another meeting should be held prior to the end of the
month.
