Description

In April 1962, Director of Central Intelligence John McCone established a Deputy Directorate for Research, in an attempt to consolidate the CIA's scientific and technical activities. Among the activities to be managed by the new directorate were the ELINT functions which were previously the responsibility of the DD/P and DD/Support. The two attachments to the memo provide a draft of a mission and functions statement for DD/R ELINT activities and subjects for discussion between three CIA directorates with regard to the transfer of ELINT activities to the DD/R.
