ne corm ee Mita,
“to Headquarters Air Force making. a plea for allocation of two B-57C dual
control aircraft to Air Force Special Weapons Center.

There are two purposes

that such aircraft would serve; primarily duel control aircraft are required
for pilot training and checkout; secondarily, the requested aircraft would —
be used as sampler ‘control aircraft during actual nuclear sampling operations.
The rest of the correspondence indicates that the Air Force accepted this
proposal but it is not clear whether they did in fact go ahead with the

authorization of two B-57C's.
