the Office of Training in cooperation with the War Plans Staff /DDP
conducted a survey of the value of Project The War Plans25X1A2g
Staff directed its effort toward the Clandestine Services and the
Military Services and will furnish a separate report on the results

results:

a The Directorate for Intelligence indicated that Project
contributes little to the furtherance of the over-all
liaison already established with the military departments.
The course adds to the already heavy demands on the time of
the senior personnel but if the program benefits other elements

ventures in which they are engaged with the military services.
The respondent suggested that the program be shortened and
assured participation if it is decided that the program is of
value to the Agency.
c. The Directorate of Support offices stated it is their
opinion that Project - is of primary value to the DDP
and that they must take their lead from the DDP. The Support
offices derive very little direct results from the program;
however, they would support the program if the DDP decides
it is of value. Those offices which carry on liaison with
components of the military brief their contacts on an individual
"need-to-know" basis. The Office of Training views Project
as one of its many requirements from the Clandestine
Services and fulfills its regular role in the support thereof in
presenting the course as directed.
