UFO's - 1986 Answer to NSA
CUFON Computer UFO Network
Document #: 20
From: UFO INFO SERVICE
Date Sent: 06-10-1986
Subject: 1986 ANSWER TO NSA
CUFON - UFO INFORMATION SERVICE SEATTLE, WASHINGTON
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT DOCUMENT FILES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mr. Dennis C. Chadwick 3-7-86
Chief, Information Policy
National Security Agency
Fort George G. Meade
Maryland 20755-6000
Dear Mr. Chadwick:
Thank you for your letter of 3 March 1986 and reply to my previous letter
on Project Aquarius. I understand from your letter that you intend to
abide strictly by the letter of the law in responses to FOIA requests. I
had not realized that this was the attitude of the NSA or I would not have
bothered you with questions in general. I have gotten the impression from
other sources that the NSA does not maintain a generally open attitude
toward the public, particularly where the subject of unidentified aerial
objects is involved, and while completely understand the need to restrict
some information what good is a country if its citizens are kept ignorant.
Personally I feel that assessing a $15,000 charge for information is
simply a convenient way to disuade requests.
Let me therefore rephrase my request as I would prefer to judge for myself
whether Aquarius has anything to do with my interests. Firstly, I do not
want to endanger this country or any of its intelligence gathering
sources. I am not a spy or a subversive, my father is a surgeon and Lt.
Colonel in the Air Force and I wouldn't want to harm his career.
Therefore I am requesting just a clean copy of the material NSA is
maintaining which describes what the goal of project Aquarius is. I am
not asking for all material you have but simply the initial forms, papers,
or letters, which initiated this project and those which outline its
purpose.
I cannot conceive that there should be anything but negligible costs to
photocopy these materials. This should be waived inasmuch as it should be
in the interest of the public to be aware of what their taxes are paying
for. But if NSA needs reimbursement of copying costs then please let me
know what the cost will be.
Sincerely,
Mr.----------------------
