On 3/15/72 SA HENRY SCHUTZ at the Bureau called and advised that after many machinations the Army had given its approval to using the Army troops to make the terrain search.

I thereafter received a call from [REDACTED] from Fort b6 Lewis, who advised that he had received word from the 6th b7C Army in San Francisco that they would not be permitted to participate. Shortly thereafter I received another call from [REDACTED] saying that the original decision was reversed and that they would participate. He will get the instructions in writing and as soon as he does, he will contact me.

They anticipate making a reconnaissance of the area before moving the troops in. He advised that they want to make it on a 7-day a week operation, which is satisfactory with us.
