Mr. Coleman. Yes.
Mr. Seeley. That was AE-173, of April 13, 1961. It is Department X-38.
Mr. Coleman. Will the record show that that document has already been marked as Commission Exhibit No. 971 before the Commission. You say that you read Commission Exhibit No. 971 and cleared it before it went forward?
Mr. Seeley. Yes, sir.
Mr. Coleman. Exhibit No. 971 which you referred to as X-38 shows on the left-hand side that there is a notation that a copy of the instructions was sent to the CIA.
Mr. Seeley. Was furnished to the CIA.
Mr. Coleman. Was that done at the same time the instructions went forward?
Mr. Seeley. No, sir.
Mr. Coleman. Did you have anything to do with sending it to the CIA?
Mr. Seeley. I don't have a recollection on this. I would imagine what happened is that there was a request by the CIA for a copy of this, and that I authorized them to be furnished a copy on October 5, 1961.
