Per
our
conversation, attached
is our
draft
DoD
Request that includes, inter alia,
a
request
for
(1)
training exercises that involved
a
plane
as a
weapon (see item #6),
and (2)
documents
from NORAD
J2
officers related
to
planes
as
weapons (see item #9).
As you can
see, theserequests
are
fairly narrowly targeted
and
would
not
reach
intelligence
info
within
OSD,
So/LIC,
J2, etc
related
to the
issue
of
planes
as
weapons.
As I
mentioned,
we
drafted
a
memo
to
Philip after
our
NEADS visit expressing
our
concern that there
may be a gap in theCommission's
fact finding
re
this issue
(at
least with respect
to
DoD)
and
asking
for his
guidance
as to who
among
the
staff should pursue these issues;
we
have
not
heard back
from
him.
I
have
had
conversations with Bonnie, Mike
and
Lome about this issue,
so I'm
copying
them
on
this message. This draft
is
with
the
front office
and
we're hoping
to get it out
late
this week
or
early next week. Please keep
us
posted
on how you
proceed. Thanks
-
Dana.
