INSTRUCTIONS RF~GARDING INTERVIEWS IN SUPPORT OF
CS HISTORICAL PAPERS
Normally it is anticipated that an individual responsible
for preparing a historical paper will acquire the necessary
information largely from existing documentation, both active
and retired, from interviews (debriefings) of personnel pres-
ently on duty, and from the writer's own experience and respon-
sibilities which relateto the paper at hand.
The. history of the Clandestine Services presently in the
process of development reaches back to October 1945. This fact
alone indicates that there will be. gaps in information some-
times so great that the sources mentioned above will be found
inadequate. In such instances, the writer may find himself
compelled to interrogate or debrief at some length one or more
individuals who may have:; already retired from the Agency.
Contacts with such persons will only be made when absolutely
necessary.
Prior to approaching a person who has retired from the
Agency the following steps will be taken:
a. The name of the individual and his address, if
known, will be submitted by memorandum to the security
officer of the component having jurisdiction for the paper
being prepared, or to the chief of support, who will for-
ward it to the DD/SEC/PS for examination as to. the propri-
ety of approaching the-individual, and for approval to
contact him for debriefing purposes..
b. If it is found necessary to establish bona fides,
and after receiving clearance for making the contact from
the Office of Security, the name and address of t i d'
vidual to be approached will be submitted to the 25X1A
