TO: Henry A. Kissinger
FROM: Ambassador David Bruce
1. I particularly call your attention to USLO 465
about wearing of marine uniforms. Hope my decision will be
approved, otherwise I am convinced there would be a major
row with the Chinese.
2. Basic telegrams on this subject are Peking 253
and State 115479.
3. Warm Regards
