Contacts Overseas of the Inter-Services Security Board. Note by the Secretary

4. In suggesting this extension of our contacts, we are influenced not merely by the immediate requirements of war in the Pacific. To make a success of operational security or of deception, a sense of "mission and purpose" is required. Those responsible must be continuously alive to the general situation. Our ultimate purpose is to create a simple network of selected officers spanning the war theatres and working to one theme. 5. Collaboration with the U.S. has been dealt with in a separate paper.
