memorandum is in response to u letter to the Secretary of Defense
from the Chairman, US House of Representatives Permanent Select

DIA in their evaluation effort and expect that INSCOM GRILL FLAME
achievements will play an important part in the process of vali-

Army GRILL FLAME Information during the budget justification
period, INSCOM has changed the project name to "CENTER LANE."

tinue to engage in DOD GRILL FLAME activities as CENTER LANE
