VC 20310 RKVLY TO ATTffMnON CW DAMI-ISH 25 JAN N3 MEMORANDUM FOR DEPUTY ASSISTANT CHIEF OF STAFF FOR INTELLIGENCE SUBJECT: GRILL FLAME Actions (U) 1. (S/NOFORN) The Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (USDRE) has authorized the use of Program 6 resources to maintain the current Army GRILL FLAME capability and supplement as necessary the FY 83 DIA evalua- tion effort (Incl 1). It is intended that these funds be used during FY 83. 2.: (U) As a result of the USDRE memo above, the Office of the Assistant Secretary of.the Army (Research, Development and Acquisition) has notified the Deputy Chief of Staff for Research, Development and Acquisition (DCSRDA) that OACSI will be seeking P.6 funds amounting to approximately $15OK for GRILL FLAME activity. LTG Merryman, DCSRDA has requested a briefing on GRILL FLAME and presumedly he also desires to know what our funding needs are. 3. (S/NOFORN) Per discussion with ZB 24 Jan 83, a briefing for LTG Merryman will be set up for Tuesday or Wednesday (31 Jan or I Feb 83). The briefing will-be by MAJ(P) Fox with ZB attending. At this briefing OACSI should be prepared to present INSCOM desires re funding levels and activities to be funded. It Is anticipated that the request and approval vehicle for the funds will be a memo from DAMI-ISH to DCSRDA, in a fashion similar to an existing ISH arrangement with DCSRDA on another matter. Monies from DCSRDA would be channeled thru INSCOM (again in a fashion similar to an existing agreement) to the contractor for GRILL FLAME training. It is important to note that: a. (S/NOFORN) The monies cannot go to DIA (and hence to the contractor) since that would place the funds back into the NFIP and we have a Congres- sional decision precluding the use of NFIP funds. b. (U) A contract must exist for services to be provided by the funds. c. (C) Payment from DCSRDA, once made, cannot be returned. Partial payment, as needed, may be used if desired. 4. (SINOFORN) 'Sec Army annual approval for human use Issues is due this month. He should be informed of the program's status, It's name change, intent to use P.6.funds and probable participation In DIA'S efforts to have a panel review and testimony to Congress in the near future. 114r, GR11 L FLA`.Vj t (U) .6rr%ng:T NOT RELEASABLE TO CLOSE HOLDIHAND CARRY 'w FOREIGN NATIONALS CUSSIFIED BY ACSI DA Approved For Release 2001/04/02 : C1A-RDP96.00788R00j9r6H8V6j8.@ OADR Approved For Release 2001/04/02 : CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1700350015-1 .1w NCT RELEASABLE TO F%"'RE!GN NATIONALS DAMI-ISH SUBJECT: GRILL FLAME Actions (U) 5. (S) DIA's decision to have a formal panel review and to brief Congress is driven by a letter to the SecDef from Mr. Bolans Chairman*, House Permanent Select Committee on intelligence (Incl 2). While 0ACS1 has nuly been infor- mally requested to have INSCOM participate in the review and briefing process, a formal request will probably be forthcoming and we would expect to-secede to DIA's desires. 6. (U) An OACSI/INSCOM meeting should be set up prior to the DCSRDA briefing to discuss the issues involved in Army GRILL FLAME's future so that we have a common course and consensus. 0ACS1 attendees would be ZB and MAJ(P) Fox; INSCOM attendees might include BG Hunt, COL Hyman, COL Miller and LTC Jachim. cz@7@0!4(0 2 Incls GERALD FOX as Major, GS 2 Approved For Release 2001/0 Q IA-RDP96-00788 ROO 1700350015-1 C00A V_ .0 NOTIRELEASABLETO FOREIGN NATIONALS
