VED PRIVACY ACT MATERIAL REMO 6. It is further suggested that the use of helicopters for getiing passengers to water landing craft may be most desirable. With the con~ currence of your headquarters and TG 7.3, request a barge be furnished, _ with a landing circle painted thereon, for helicopter landings and pleced as shown on attached drawing. A small boat or raft should then be nrovid- ed to tale personnel from the barge to the amphibian tied up at the buoy, 7e It is recommended that TG 7.3, through THUMPTACK, exercise normal tower control of airlift aircraft onerating in the Bikini area, A Task Group 7.4 Liaison Officer will be placed aboard the USS BAIROKO to coordinate TG 7.3 and TG 7.4 matters. 8, Further recommend Task Groun 7.4 exercise, through BOUNDARY TARE, enroute or area control of all airlift aircraft operating in the Pilini area, 9. This proposed means of controlling airlift operations would enable the CIC, BOUNDARY TARE, id coordination with the AOC Enivetok, to control all enroute traffic. Communication would be maintaincd between the two to assure imm-diate passage of flight schedules, flight plans, flight altitudes, time of take-offs and lindings, canccllation, personnel and cargo loads, etc. The CIC, BOUNDARY TARE, after vectoring aircraft te the landing area, will alert the CIC aboard the BAIROKO whore final airlift control would be accomplished in conjuction with helicopter control. After take-off of intcr-stoll traffic, the “AITROKO would pass control back to the CIC for further clearance, 10. Approval of the above proposal is requested.
