b. Intelligence teams are comprised of three men each, to include
a linguist, a tech man, and an ops man. All are airborne qualified.
Cross-training is provided each team member in the skills of the other
team members to assure a team functional capability despite casualties
which may be incurred in employment.
c. Peacetime employment of AFCIN intelligence team capability is
provided for in UFO investigation (AFR 200-2) and in support of Air
Force Systems Command (AFSC) Foreign Technology Division (FTD) Projects
Moon Dust and Blue Fly. These three peacetime projects all involve a
potential for employment of qualified field intelligence personnel on
a quick reaction basis to recover or perform field exploitation of
unidentified flying objects, or known Soviet/Bloc aerospace vehicles,
weapons systems, and/or residual componants of such equipment. The
intelligence team capability to gain rapid access, regardless of
location, to recover or perform field exploitation, to communicate and
provide intelligence reports is the only such collection capability
available to AFCIN, and is vitally necessary in view of current intelli-
gence gaps concerning Soviet/Bloc technological capabilites.
d. Wartime employment of AFCIN intelligence team capability is
currently primarily geared to the CONAD/NORAD air defense mission
(Atch I). The intelligence team concept was originally developed
within the Air Defense Command (ADC). The ADC Director of Intelligence
was charged in 1953 with organizing the 4602d Air Intelligence Service
Squadron (AISS), with a wartime mission of exploiting downed enemy
"people, paper, and hardware" for intelligence information that would
contribute to the air defense of the continental US, and ADC was
allocated manpower for this function (ADC Regulation 24-4, 3 Jan 53,
Organization and Mission of the 4602d Air Intelligence Service Squadron).
e. As an economy move, the 201 spaces of the 4602d AISS were trans-
ferred to AFCIN in July 1957 (Hq Comd General Order 46, dtd 8 Jul 57),
to provide manning for peacetime AFCIN functions, but with the contin-
gency that AFCIN would continue to maintain a capability to support
CONAD/NORAD in the wartime people, paper, and hardware mission (Atchs
2 and 3). From the 194 spaces that AFCIN allocated to the 1006th AISS,
activated by Hq Comd General Order #49, 2 Jul 57, this capability was
provided for (Dept of AF ltr, dtd 16 Jul 59, subj: Mission of the 1006th
AISS), and the capability has been maintained to the present time,
through the redesignation of the 1006th to the 1127th USAF Field
Activities Group (AFCIN Policy Ltr 205-13, 13 April 1960).
f. The maintenance of the intelligence team capability over the
four year period since inactivation of the 4602d AISS has been possible
largely because members of the original highly select and trained 4602d
personnel remained with the organization during its subsequent designa-
tions.
