Observers at CASTLE
Meeting
12=3-53
General Roper stated this subject was brought up as a
a
result of a request from the Task Force Commander,
General Clarkson, for information on the policy to be adopted
for the official observer program.
Mr. Strauss observed that
the Commissioners and staff are not, of course, to be considered official observers.
It was observed that this same
status applies to the MLC and similar DOD personnel having
direct interests in the operation.
Mr. Strauss further
stated that some official observer program at the next tests
may be desirable but the question has not yet been resolved
by the Commissioners.
A discussion of the direct and in-
direct costs involved followed.
Mr, Strauss said that
following Commission consideration of these and other factors
further discussions with the DOD will be held.
