MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR, TACTICAL S}~STEMS
SUBJECT: Status Report on Non-Lethal Acoustic Initiative
Per your instructions (attached) following my last report to you
on this subject, we have contacted the acting Executive Secretary
of the Foreign Material Program Review Board (FMPRB). They
require only a request for funding accompanied by a proposal
which contains specifics of the proposed program with supporting
cost estimate, test activities, schedule, etc. Charlie Hawkins,
the FMPRB chairman, may unilaterally approve the proposal or he
may circulate it among the members for comment.
I have instructed Don Henry to prepare a cautious and prudent
approach to this project, structured in sequential phases to
minimize up-front cost and risk. Progression from one phase to
the next is to be dependent on successfully completing the
current phase.
I expect to approach the FMPRB sometime during the latter half of
April and shall' apprise you of the outcome.
