| Description |
English: A FOI declassified memo by CIA Director Richard Helms discussing the use of OXCART (the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spyplane) to conduct operations over Vietnam.
This memo is particularly notable because the redactor failed to remove all mentions of OXCART's US base of operations - on page 15 (the 17th page of the PDF document) paragraph #2 ends "Three OXCART aircraft and the necessary task force personnel will be deployed from Area 51 to Kadena."
