TO: GAC
FROM: JJMC
SUBJECT: Draft Phung Hoang Cable
REMARKS: Attached are three (3) copies of
the draft cable sent over by John Arthur,
along with the comments that he sent over
explaining why the changes were made. I have
spoken to Dave Farnham and in the interest
of getting the cable out he and JCS have
made their peace with USAID. The one change
in the USAID draft that emerged from this
agreement is noted on the attached drafts.
Although I have some doubts about the
stability of the USAID-Police-OSA-PSB Klatch,
basically I agree with DOD that the cable
should go sooner rather than argue about it
for another month. Therefore, I have made
no further changes in it.
I have provided you with only three
copies since John Arthur provided copies to
the membership and your briefcase is, I
believe, already full.
