By November 1967 [redacted] OSI and FMSAC analysts have worked on the Surveyor Staff. Their Surveyor related work, such as scanning the incoming mail, suggesting items to divisional analysts, and coordinating items, has created a current intelligence awareness among these analysts, broadened their outlook, and made them aware of Office problems beyond those of their own individual specialty.
