STEIN1.TXT - Text file that was scanned and processed via OCR by
^^^^^^^^^^^^ Harvey Stewart [UFONET I] .
The file was run through the Microsoft Word 5.0 spell
checker following conversion so most errors in character
recognition should be ok. Now that I finally have OCR
software that works there should be lots of files on the
way so stay tuned.
Do you have important material that needs to be shared?
Contact us here at UFONET I and perhaps we can convert
your document to a text file for you using our OCR
software and hardware. You can contact either myself
Harvey Stewart or the Sysop of this board Tom Mickus
for details.

Mr. William S. Steinman

Dear Mr. Steinman :
This is in response to your letter of May 8, 1984, in
which you request information concerning "The Interplanetary
Phenomenon Unit of the Scientific and Technical Branch of
Army counterintelligence Directorate, DA. "Your letter was
received in this office on May 15, 1984 .
As you note in your letter, the so-called Interplanetary
Phenomenon Unit ( IPU ) was disestablished and, as far as we
are aware, all records, if any, Were transferred to the Air
Force in the late 1950's . The "unit was formed as an in-
house project purely as an interest item for the Assistant
Chief of Staff for Intelligence . It was never a "unit" in
the military sense, nor was it ever formally organized or
reportable, it had no investigative function, mission or
authority, and may not even have had any formal records at
all, It is only through institutional memory that any
recollection exists of this unit. We are therefore Unable
to answer your questions as to the exact purpose of the
unit, exactly when it was disestablished, or who was in command
this last would not apply in any case, as no one was
in command ". We have no records or documentation of any
kind on this unit, "Also, it is Very unlikely that there
was any relationship between xxxxxxxxxx and the IPU, but
only xxxxxxxxxxxxx could answer that question.
I regret that we are unable to be of more assistance in
this matter.
Sincerely,
Lance R. Cornine
Lieutenant Colonel, General Staff
Director of Counterintelligence
