Mr, 4man via
9 August 1966
I've looked over the attached Midcareer slate.
While its' fairly clear that some of our Career Ser-
vices are not putting their best feet forward, I see
no reason to challenge any of the principals nominated.
To strengthen future Support Directorate slates
for the Midcareer Course, I suggest we ask Career
Service heads to use a long-range approach in picking
their candidates. If they do so on an annual basis,
using competitive rankings-and then nominate them
for the individual courses based on their availability,
I think we would get a much better result. Perhaps
it would be a useful stimulus in connection with this
suggestion to give each Career Service head a list
of his nominees in past Midcareer Courses and let
him see how they match up against the rank order
list which his Career Board is currently using. This
would give him a simple means of "auditing" past
selections and perhaps be a useful benchmark in
this connection.
