Dear Mr.________________:
|
|
|
|
This is in response to your letter of October 21, 1978
|
|
requesting information on MOONDUST AND BLUEFLY.
|
|
|
|
BLUEFLY was a project for the acquisition of airlift
|
|
for a quick reaction capability. It was determined that
|
|
the need did not exist and the project was discontinued
|
|
several years ago.
|
|
|
|
MOONDUST is a program in which the Air Force provides
|
|
technical assistance in determining the origin of space
|
|
debris, U.S. or foreign.
|
|
|
|
These programs are under the purview of Air Force Systems
|
|
Command, Andrews AFB, MD, 20034. Please write to the Director
|
|
of Information there, if you desire additional data. He
|
|
may be able to help.

Dear Mr.________________:
|
|
|
|
This letter is in reference to your appeal from the
|
|
decision of the Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence,
|
|
partially denying your request for a copy of a Biographical
|
|
Sketch, dated 1 January 1957; two AFCIN memoranda, dated 11
|
|
February 1958 and 26 December (no year indicated); the
|
|
AFCIN-1E-0 letter, dated 3 November 1961; the AFOIN-X(SG)
|
|
memo, dated 29 April 2952; and the AFOIN-SSG letter.
|
|
|
|
The Office of the Secretary of the Air Force has
|
|
considered your appeal, and I have determined your appeal
|
|
should be granted in part and denied in part.
|
|
|
|
The Biographical Sketch, dated 1 January 1957, is exempt
|
|
from mandatroy disclosure under the Freedom of Information
|
|
Act, 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(6). The disclosure of this information
|
|
would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal
|
|
privacy. Release of this type of information is also
|
|
prohibited by paragraph 27b, Air Force Regulation 12-35 (32
|
|
CFR 806b).
|
|
|
|
The two AFCIN memoranda, dated 11 February 1958 and 26
|
|
December (no year indicated) are intra-agency memoranda con-
|
|
taining opinions and suggestions and are exempt from manda-
|
|
tory disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, 5
|
|
U.S.C. 552(b)(5). These memoranda are withheld in an effort
|
|
to promote the free and frank interchange of ideas, opinions
|
|
and recommendations among Air Force personnel. The infor-
|
|
mation withheld is primarily opinion which would not be
|
|
routinely available through the discovery process.
|
|
|
|
Portions of the AFCIN-1E-0 letter, dated 3 November 1961
|
|
are releasable; however, the remaining portions are still
|
|
exempt from mandatory release under the Freedom of Informa-
|
|
tion Act 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(1). This information and the
|
|
AFOIN-X(SG) memos are currently classified under Executive
|
|
Order 12065, Section 1-301 (a) and (c), as implemented by
|
|
Department of Defense regulation 5200.1-R, paragraphs 2-301
|
|
(C) (3) and (5). The continuing protection of this informa-
|
|
tion is essential to the national security because it reveals
|
|
intelligence sources and methods. The release of this infor-
|
|
mation could reasonably be expected to cause identifiable
|
|
damage to the national security. The AFOIN-SSG letter has
|
|
been declassified and is released.
|
|
|
|
This letter constitutes the final Air Force action on
|
|
your appeal. Under the Freedom of Information Act 5 U.S.C.
|
|
552, provision exists for judicial review of this
|
|
determination.

This responds to your 25 March 1986 Freedom of Information request.
|
|
|
|
Attached is the only document in the Air Force Intelligence Office
|
|
(AF/IN) relative to your request.
|
|
|
|
AF/IN has no knowledge of "ICGL#4" dated 25 April 1961, pertaining
|
|
to Project Moon Dust. No "AFCIN SOP for Blue Fly Operations,
|
|
February 1960" was located. The programs (UFO, Blue Fly, Moon
|
|
Dust) no longer exist and records were destroyed.
|
|
|
|
There is no Air Force Intelligence unit responsible for collections
|
|
under these projects since the projects are no longer active.

2.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
c. In addition to their staff duty assignments, intelligence

intelligence team operational capabilities (see Definitions).
|
|
|
|
d. Normal personnel attrition, through PCS, discharge,

4. ___ Criteria
|
|
|
|
a. Intelligence team personnel can perfomr effectively only with
|
|
an adequate background of training and experience. Inadequately
|
|
qualified personnel in such assignment would be a liability rather
|
|
than an asset to successful accomplishment of the mission.
|
|
|
|
5. ___ Definitions.
|
|
|
|
a. Linguist: Personnel who can develop intelligence information
|
|
through interrogation and translation from Russion and/or Bloc country
|
|
languages to English.
|
|
|
|
b. Tech Man: Personnel qualified to develop intelligence infor-
|
|
mation through field examination and analysis of foreign material,
|
|
with emphasis on the Markings Program and technical photography.
|
|
|
|
c. Ops Man: Intelligence team chief. Qualified to direct intel-
|
|
ligence teams in gaining access to target, in exploitation of enemy
|
|
personnel and material, and in use of field communications equipment
|
|
for rapid reporting of intelligence information.
|
|
|
|
d. Airborne Personnel: Military trained and rated parachutists.
|
|
|
|
e. Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO): Headquarters USAF has
|
|
established a program for investigation of reliably reported unidenti-
|
|
fied flying objects within the United States. AFR 200-2 delineates
|
|
1127th collection responsibilities.
|
|
|
|
f. Blue Fly: Operation Blue Fly has been established to facilitate
|
|
expeditious delivery to FTD of Moon Dust or other items of great tech-
|
|
nical intelligence interest. AFCIN SOP for Blue Fly operations,
|
|
February 1960, provides for 1127th participation.
|
|
|
|
g. Moon Dust: As a specialized aspect of its over-all material
|
|
exploitation program, Headquarters USAF has established Project Moon
|
|
Dust to locate, recover and deliver descended foreign space vehicles.
|
|
ICGL #4, 25 April 1961, delineates collection responsibilities.
|
|
|
|
DISCUSSION:
|
|
|
|
6. ___
|
|
|
|
a. Headquarters USAF (AFCIN) maintains intelligence teams as a
|
|
function of AFCIN-1E (1127th USAF Field Activities Group). Personnel
|
|
comprising such teams have normal AFCIN-1E staff duties, and their
|
|
maintenance of qualification for intelligence team employment is in
|
|
addition to their normal staff duties. For example, the Chief of
|
|
AFCIN-1E-OD, the Domestic Operations Section, additionally participates
|
|
in approximately 18 hours of training per month for intelligence team
|
|
employment. Such training includes physical training, classroom combat
|
|
intelligence training, airborne operations, field problems, etc.

|
|
|
|
b. Intelligence teams are comprised of three men each, to include
|
|
a linguist, a tech man, and an ops man. All are airborne qualified.
|
|
Cross-training is provided each team member in the skills of the other
|
|
team members to assure a team functional capability despite casualties
|
|
which may be incurred in employment.
|
|
|
|
c. Peacetime employment of AFCIN intelligence team capability is
|
|
provided for in UFO investigation (AFR 200-2) and in support of Air
|
|
Force Systems Command (AFSC) Foreign Technology Division (FTD) Projects
|
|
Moon Dust and Blue Fly. These three peacetime projects all involve a
|
|
potential for employment of qualified field intelligence personnel on
|
|
a quick reaction basis to recover or perform field exploitation of
|
|
unidentified flying objects, or known Soviet/Bloc aerospace vehicles,
|
|
weapons systems, and/or residual componants of such equipment. The
|
|
intelligence team capability to gain rapid access, regardless of
|
|
location, to recover or perform field exploitation, to communicate and
|
|
provide intelligence reports is the only such collection capability
|
|
available to AFCIN, and is vitally necessary in view of current intelli-
|
|
gence gaps concerning Soviet/Bloc technological capabilites.
|
|
|
|
d. Wartime employment of AFCIN intelligence team capability is
|
|
currently primarily geared to the CONAD/NORAD air defense mission
|
|
(Atch I). The intelligence team concept was originally developed
|
|
within the Air Defense Command (ADC). The ADC Director of Intelligence
|
|
was charged in 1953 with organizing the 4602d Air Intelligence Service
|
|
Squadron (AISS), with a wartime mission of exploiting downed enemy
|
|
"people, paper, and hardware" for intelligence information that would
|
|
contribute to the air defense of the continental US, and ADC was
|
|
allocated manpower for this function (ADC Regulation 24-4, 3 Jan 53,
|
|
Organization and Mission of the 4602d Air Intelligence Service Squadron).
|
|
|
|
e. As an economy move, the 201 spaces of the 4602d AISS were trans-
|
|
ferred to AFCIN in July 1957 (Hq Comd General Order 46, dtd 8 Jul 57),
|
|
to provide manning for peacetime AFCIN functions, but with the contin-
|
|
gency that AFCIN would continue to maintain a capability to support
|
|
CONAD/NORAD in the wartime people, paper, and hardware mission (Atchs
|
|
2 and 3). From the 194 spaces that AFCIN allocated to the 1006th AISS,
|
|
activated by Hq Comd General Order #49, 2 Jul 57, this capability was
|
|
provided for (Dept of AF ltr, dtd 16 Jul 59, subj: Mission of the 1006th
|
|
AISS), and the capability has been maintained to the present time,
|
|
through the redesignation of the 1006th to the 1127th USAF Field
|
|
Activities Group (AFCIN Policy Ltr 205-13, 13 April 1960).
|
|
|
|
f. The maintenance of the intelligence team capability over the
|
|
four year period since inactivation of the 4602d AISS has been possible
|
|
largely because members of the original highly select and trained 4602d
|
|
personnel remained with the organization during its subsequent designa-
|
|
tions. _______________________________________________________________

______________________ In addition, a minimum number of new
|
|
personnel assigned to the organization and fortuitously possessing basic
|
|
requisite skills, were further trained and integrated into the intelli-
|
|
gence team program as additional duty.
|
|
|
|
g. Manning of the intelligence teams from these sources has now
|
|
reached the point of diminishing returns. Only 21 qualified intelligence
|
|
team personnel are now assigned, and of these approximately half are
|
|
scheduled for PCS departure from the organization during the next 12
|
|
months. There is no forecast input of previously qualified personnel.
|
|
There are currently five basically qualified volunteers for further
|
|
training and assignment to intelligence team additional duty.
|
|
|
|
h. In an effort to augment the diminishing capability, USAF
|
|
personnel assigned to organizations other than the 1127th within the
|
|
Washington area who have airborne/intelligence team qualification, and/or
|
|
who are former members of this organization's intelligence teams, and
|
|
who have been approved by their organization of assignment and Hq USAF
|
|
(AFCIN) for wartime assignment to the 1127th, have been issued appro-
|
|
priate orders, and participate in the peacetime training program for
|
|
wartime employment. Two such personnel are attached, with no known
|
|
available additional personnel.
|
|
|
|
i. The most serious immediate and forecast intelligence team
|
|
shortage is in Linguists. There are now only five Russion Linguists
|
|
assigned or attached, and of these only two are of native fluency, with
|
|
the other three of language school capability. Four of the five,
|
|
including the two of native fluency, are forecast for PCS by November
|
|
1962. Only one gain, fortunately of native fluency, is scheduled for
|
|
airborne training for intelligence team qualification and assignment.
|
|
Two additional Russian Linguists are forecast for assignment to the
|
|
1127th, but neither are yet intelligence team qualified or are known
|
|
to be volunteers for intelligence team assignment. All intelligence
|
|
team personnel are volunteers.
|
|
|
|
j. ______________________________________________________________
|
|
________________________________________________________________
|
|
Eight personnel in these categories are forecast for PCS loss within the
|
|
next twelve months, with an input forecast of five personnel, four of
|
|
whom are presently assigned, basically qualified volunteers for airborne
|
|
training, and one of whom is a forecast gain to the 1127th.
|
|
|
|
k. A sizeable number of qualified Linguists are presently assigned
|
|
to ________________________________________________________________
|
|
_______ ZI bases. Many of the Linguists are either airborne rated and/
|
|
or have had intelligence team assignments to this organization in its
|
|
present or former designations. Reassignment of these individuals to
|
|
AFCIN-1E upon completion of their present tours is a logical method by

|
|
|
|
which the current and forecast shortage could be met. A problem that
|
|
would be encountered in implementing such assignment is the lack of
|
|
1127th Linguist AFSC manpower vacancies. The 1127th has only twelve
|
|
Linguist AFSC manpower spaces allocated and seven of these spaces are
|
|
filled with either non-Russian/Bloc country Linguists or with non-
|
|
intelligence team qualified Linguists.
|
|
|
|
1. Possible solutions to the current and forecast shortage are:
|
|
|
|
(1) Basically qualified personnel currently assigned to AFCIN-1E
|
|
who volunteer for further training, to include airborne training, and
|
|
assignment to intelligence teams, should be given such training and
|
|
assignment as additional duty to normal staff duty employment.
|
|
|
|
(2) Assignment to the 1127th of intelligence team qualified
|
|
Linguists returning from overseas or completing other ZI assignments
|
|
on an authorized overage basis. Such authorized overages were previously
|
|
assigned to the organization and provided not only for the intelligence
|
|
team capability, but for fruitful peacetime ZI employment of Linguists.
|
|
Ten such personnel could be fully and effectively utilized during peace-
|
|
time in duties directly in or closely allied to their AFSC's, with the
|
|
intelligence team capability being an additional duty.
|
|
|
|
(3) Qualified intelligence team personnel now assigned to the
|
|
1127th could be retained beyond their normal duty tours until a simi-
|
|
larly qualified replacement is forecast or assigned.
|
|
|
|
e. A standard AFPMP and AFCIN-P policy should be the identification
|
|
to AFCIN-1E of previously qualified intelligence team personnel fore-
|
|
cast for return to the ZI form overs3eas assignments for assignment
|
|
against AFCIN-1E forecast personnel vacancies. Latitude may be required
|
|
and should be authorized in the assignment of such personnel be grade
|
|
and AFSC. For example, if a 204XX vacancy is forecast withing AFCIN-1E
|
|
and an intelligence team qualified 203XX is forecast available, and the
|
|
203XX is determined able to perform the staff duties required, either
|
|
from personal knowledge of the individual's capabilities, or by means
|
|
of an exchange of correspondence between the losing command and AFCIN-1E,
|
|
authorization for asignment of the 203XX against the 204XX vacancy
|
|
should be granted. It is generally true that 203's with AISS background
|
|
are normally able to perform 204 duties effectively with a minimum of
|
|
experience on the job. To a lesser degree, and on a selective basis,
|
|
this is also true of 203's being able to perform intelligence organiza-
|
|
tion 702 duties.
|
|
|
|
n. Discussion to this point has covered the intelligence team
|
|
development, composition, current peacetime and wartime missions, and
|
|
personnel problems. To further establish the value of the unique
|
|
Air Force capability represented by the intelligence teams, their
|

CONCLUSION:
|
|
|
|
7. __ There is a valid current and continuing need for the AFCIN
|
|
intelligence team capability for peacetime and wartime employment.
|
|
Actions necessary to maintain the capability in "cadre" strength
|
|
should be immediately implemented, and actions to expand the capability
|
|
should be implemented on a sound basis of personnel acquisition,
|
|
training, equipping, and employment.
|
|
|
|
ACTION RECOMMENDED:
|
|
|
|
8. ___
|
|
|
|
a. Basically qualified personnel currently assigned to AFCIN-1E
|
|
who volunteer for further training, to include airborne training, and
|
|
assignment to intelligence teams, should be given such training and
|
|
assignment as additional duty to normal staff duty employment. Attach-
|
|
ment 4 is a current request for airborne training quotas for five
|
|
qualified volunteers.
|
|
|
|
b. AFCIN-1E should prepare, and submit through appropriate channels,
|
|
individual justifications for the following:
|
|
|
|
(l) Authorized overage assignment on a selective basis of an
|
|
initial ten intelligence team qualified Linguists returning to the ZI
|
|
from overseas assignment, with a later additional supplement in the
|
|
event of AFCIN authorized expansion of cadre strength of the intelligence
|
|
team capability.
|
|
|
|
(2) Detention beyond normal duty tours of qualified intelligence
|
|
team personnel now assigned to the 1127th until similarly qualified
|
|
replacements are forecast or assigned.
|
|
|
|
(3) Request for establishment of an AFPMP and AFCIN-P practice
|
|
to identify to AFCIN-1E previously qualified intelligence team personnel
|
|
forecast for return to the ZI from overseas assignments. Latitude should
|
|
be requested by AFCIN-1E in assignment of such personnel against actual
|
|
or forecast vacancies in AFSC and grade spaces in variance with those
|
|
possessed by the returnees if it is established that returnees have non-
|
|
AFSC skills which can be effectively utilized in the vacant spaces.
|
|
|
|
(4) Ninety-day TDY of AFCIN intelligence team to South Viet Nam
|
|
for employment in Viet Nam/Laos against USAF intelligence requirements.
|
|
Experience gained in establishing logistical support and operational
|
|
employment will be invaluable in developing further plans for intelligence
|
|
team utilization. The team should be attached to the Air Attache, Viet
|
|
Nam, and under his operational control for the period of TYD.
