To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
DOD records.
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
To settle the Cuban Missile Crisis the agreement that the U.S. reached with Russia was that if they would remove their Missiles from Cuba that the U.S. would remove it's Jupiter missiles from Italy and Turkey. What I want to know is why the Jupiters were not returned to the U.S. where they could have been used for space research instead of destroying them in Europe!!!
Sincerely,
Edgar May
From: Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary of Defense
