MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: GRILL FLAME Update Briefing for COL(P) Wilmot, 17 October 1979 (U)
1. (U) PURPOSE: This MFR outlines significant points of my update
briefing given to COL(P) Wilmot, DCSOPS, INSCOM, on 17 October 1979.
2. (U) The briefing was presented on a one-on-one basis.
3. (U) The major portion of the briefing concerned reviewing the
following:
a. The update briefing provided MG Rolya on 21 Sep 79.
SG1A
b. The meeting I had with the DOD Science Evaluation Team on
27 Sep 79.
c. The ACSI MFR covering their evaluation of the INSCOM
GRILL FLAME program.
d. The ACSI message of 4 Oct 79 tasking INSCOM to keep them abreast
of any personnel problems we encounter and to request that an update
briefing be scheduled for the ACSI (NOTE: We have learned that Director,
DIA probably will attend such a briefing. Time has not been arranged as
of this date.).
4. (S) COL Wilmot reviewed several INSCOM GRILL FLAME reports that we
have produced in the recent past. (C16 Training Report), A6E Report, and
He seemed impressed with the data and wanted to know when
we could be "operational." My milestones currently project an operational
date for late 1981. COL Wilmot and MG Thompson (see ACSI MFR) have both
questioned: "Why not 1980?" I reminded COL Wilmot that we are still in
the training phase and do not have sufficient space nor dedicated resources
to be operational by 1980. 1 provided COL Wilmot an update covering our
space situation, including the recent meeting COL White and I had with
BG Smith. COL Wilmot indicated he would see BG Smith and remind him of
the operational urgency behind our space requirements. As far as

personnel are concerned, COL Wilmot stated he would look into the
situation. Meanwhile, he requested that I provide him a list of
individuals that I want stabilized for two years and that such a list give
him the current status of the individual (i.e...have we already gone
through DCSPER to MILPERCEN, etc.).
5. (C) Finally, COL Wilmot tasked me to start developing procedures
whereby GRILL FLAME type information could be fed into the intelligence
mainstream and to begin formulating the mechanism for receiving tasking.
I assured COL Wilmot that we were already working on those two points.
No date was set for when we had to provide such information to COL Wilmot.
