To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

A copy of the memo found in this article:

Excerpt here: "In a June 4 memo labeled “Guidance,” Defense Secretary Ashton B. Carter outlined a subtle shift for the Pentagon’s renowned Office of Net Assessment and its new director, retired Air Force Col. Jim Baker. With Carter’s memo, the office, which traditionally looked towards the horizon when it comes to defense concerns, will incorporate more of today’s issues in its analyses."
