The preparation of the TG 7.4 Long Range Construc-
tion Program during REDWING has resulted in an excel-
lent basic document.
The permanent establishment of
this Headquarters has permitted the continued moni-
toring of this program, With the excellent cooperation of JIF SEVEN and TG 7,5, this program is progressing in a most satisfactory manner, A realistic
cut-off date of 23 June 1956 was established by CJTF
SEVEN, Any changes or additions to the existing
program are being closely monitored by this Headquarters. This Headquarters is studying the requirement for portable type buildings. Hq USAF has
advised that CAS buildings will not be avaialbe,
but that a Butler-type building, 40' x 100', can
be made available. This substitute item appears to
be satisfactory.

We believe that the establishment of the 4950th ©
Test Group (Nuclear) as a permanent organization
with the mission of planning USAF participation
in nuclear tests will prevent the neglect of the
Construction Program which occurred previously.
The 4950th has worked closely with JTF SEVEN to
reorient the construction program from time to
time to adapt it to changing requirements and to
obtain as much of the necessary ccnstruction as
possible in the off—year periods,
