SUBJECT: Quarterly Status Report on Joint Study Group Recommendations
TO: The Secretary of Defense
1. The quarterly status report is attached. It covers recommendations
not previously reported completed, for which DOD is wholly or partly
responsible.
2. Six of the 19 recommendations involving DOD had been reported
accomplished by 1 September 1962. Seven more are at this.time
reported accomplished or provided for. Of the six left, two (Nos. 7
and 9) involve ELINT, which in any case is being treated in a broader
context than that of these particular recommendations. The same is
true of two remaining recommendations (Nos. 4 and 12) concerning
personnel and training. It is anticipated that completed action can
be reported on these two upon approval of the DIA Intelligence Career
Development Plan which is being. forwarded for JCS consideration. The
SSE system (No. 6) is the subject of a DIA plan now under considera-
tion by the JCS. The last (No. 30), concerning USIB membership, is
in abeyance.

RECOMMENDATION
6. Improve the SSO System.
This recommendation will be
accomplished as a part of the
general improvement of command and
intelligence communications now
under development. A plan for a
DIA SSO System has been submitted
to the JCS.
7 & 9. -Reexamine feasibility of placing
more ELINT resources of U & S commands

J adequacy of ELINT R & D.
8. Strengthen NSA control over Service
cryptologic agencies (SCR's).

34 & 35. Transmittal of intelligence
) guidance to unified commands and through
J them to component commands through
JCS-approved channels, and control by
unified commands over intelligence
activities of component commands.
The objectives of these two recom-
mendations will be met by the
National ELINT Plan. Terms of
references and a schedule of work
have been proposed by NSA.
Provision for detailed review by
NSA of SCA budgets and a strengthening
of NSA control of processing resources
have accomplished the principal
objectives. Outcome of the National
ELINT Plan will contribute.
Action on this recommendation is
being reserved until the reorgani-
zation of military intelligence has
progressed further.
The necessary basic realignments in
organization and in channels have
been made. Detailed implementation
will continue for a long period.
The pace of development of the new
relationships between the unified
and component commands will be
influenced by that of corresponding
DIA-Service relations.
