1. To amplify the infonnation given in the basic letter it is
desired by Electronic Subdivision that the following information and
scientific data pertaining to project 11!!ogul" be classified "TOP SECRETr"
a. Precise data as to the exact placement of measuring
instruments.
b. Scientific observations and measurements that have
milit~J application.
c. Detailed methods of measuring results.
2. Engineering preparations for the final test that are not in
conflict with the above will be classified "Confidential."
3. Contractual documents will be classified the same as the
security classification of the equipments involved. Equipments used in
project "Mogul" are common to other systems or sets that are now class-
ified "Confidential," "Restricted," or "Unclassified;" contractual
documents should be c1assified accordin~.
4. Authorization is requested to observe the security c1ass-
ifications p£oposed herein.
