The US Army Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM) proposes
to further refine its GRILL FLAME efforts by purchasing jointly with the
Defense Intelligence Agency the professional services of selected con-
tracted civilian organizations and individuals. The Army General Counsel
determined that this proposed activity will constitute experimentation on
human subjects under Procedure 18, DOD Directive 5240.1-R. Section 4 of
Procedure 18 requires approval of the Under Secretary or Secretary of the
Army in order for Army to engage in GRILL FLAME activities with civilian
contractors.
2.
(S/NOFORN) All contracts entered into by INSCOM will contain the
written requirement that the provisions of Procedure 18, DOD Directive
5240.1-R will be followed. The contract monitor will ensure that the
contracted party executes its Procedure 18 responsibilities. Informed
consent of all subjects will be obtained in writing and only in accordance
with the guidelines issued by the Department of Health, Education and
Welfare. These guidelines set conditions safeguarding the welfare of the
subjects.
3. (S)
Request the Secretary of the Army approve our joint participation
in GRILL FLAME activities with DIA and contracted civilian parties under
the provisions of Procedure 18, DOD Regulation 5240.1-R.
