Although 4¢ is recognized that field conditions curing the
HAMILTON shot will net be ideal fer effects programs, I believe the
eriginal edjectives to remain valid and feasible, Therefore, I see
ne reason to change the context or priority ef ebjectives, er te cancel
the project, I have instructed the project to strive to ebtain the best
possible results under the prevalent conditions, ©
L,
I believe that we all agree that the over-all primary ebjectives
ef the HAMILTON eshet ia the development of a weaponized device to meet
Department ef Defense military requirements, After a study ef your
messare CRD/C 11898, ef which we were an info addressee, it appears that
eur two offices share the same opinion on the objectives of the progran
and the desirability ef preceeding as planned,

field terting of AFT as outlined in Inclosure 3 to above mentioned
