On 11
March 1985, in conjunction with a
series of meetings with
I met with Dr. Jack Vorona
SG1J
Also present were
and
to "welcome myself aboard".
During that time I discussed the following points:
a .
(S/NF/WNINTEL)
I informed Jack that since the project
was now a DIA responsibility that he would have to approve the
continuation of the training program because of the human use
implications, when he asked what that meant, I explained that I
had approved the continuation of training during the transition
period as the CENTER LANE Project Manager, and accepted any
risks associated with that. My authority to accept that risk
terminated 7 March 1985 date LTG Williams signed the MOA.
I
added that there was no real risk but that it was my
responsibility to inform my new boss of what we were doing at Ft
Meade .
His approval to continue training was necessary during
the time approval was being sought by the DIA General Counsel
from the DEPSECDEF.
Dr. Vorona granted approval to continue
with the training.
b. (S/NF/WNINTEL)
The approval of the MOA did a great deal
to improve the morale of the activity at Fort Meade, but that
there was still the feeling of uncertainty among the office
personnel .
I
suggested that a visit to the office by LTG
Williams would be appropriate and beneficial. Dr. Vorona stated
that a visit by LTG Williams was not feasible, but he certainly
would visit the activity.
He tasked
to set up a time for
the week of 18 March.
