detachment Dependent Program"s Effect
nt's mission
an allowing assignees to the IDEALIST
at at to have their families accompany them
Eir tour appears to be most advantageous from an operational
viewpoint. The most important of these advantages would be
that with dependents, the assignee's tour would be extended
from the present 13 to 15 months to a minimum of 24 months and
possibly as much as 36 months.
2. This additional time would contribute greatly to the
continuity of the c nd and operations functions. A

ace uainted with and effective in the running of thisF :1 25X1
Thee. longer tours will also greatly
enhance the personal co: taet and trust ey detachment
staff personnel and theT I concerned with 25X1
this program, a factor that, in the past, has had considerable
influence on the success or failure of the detachment to respond
to its basic mission.

tilt to recruit and motivate qualified individuals for
- m%panie d assi~nts . The fact that new personnel
III be allowed to have their families
ul greatly decrease the problems of recruiting
4. In addition to the command and operations functions
the above rationale applies to those individuals in other
detachment staff vo-sitions; and therefore, it follows that
ith families the more stable the detachment
'ganization an: the more successful the operation.
