As a result of this conference the Commander 4 GldO requested that: a. f&*# *r> y^&**> 'V*' Authority be Canada plans SAS site and construction granted to inform BACK that ,. to store io rockets in the will pay her share of any costs involved. b. /Agreement in principle be given to Canada isharing the costs connected wit/-, providing .accommodation for the US custcai^i detachj. ":nt for the SAS site; and to providing schooling for 'dependents of the VS custodial • detachment should Canada oe requested to •Plo so. 16 H - 2 AH yci/hrj FEB Authority be granted to inform .m.0d that Caaada will share the cost of constructing storage accommodation for reserve missiles at locations on the L of C to be decided by BAOR in accordance with the deployment plan. 3rd line and base repairs to HONEST JOHiM rockets, launchers and essential specialist equipment of US origin be arranged between 4 CIBG and HQ USAREUR. e. Agreement be given for Canadian authorities to deal with HQ USAREUR for the suodly of spare parts for common-user equipment of US 01"—gin. 2. With reference to 1 a. abc^E, the Army plans to -have 16 rockets with the unit. Infrastructure funds only provide facilities for storage of warheads and thus we are faced with providing storage facilities for lo rockets on a Canadian basis or -jointly with the British. Sharing storage accommodation with the British at the SAS site will be the most economical method of meeting this requirement. ../2 001442 �•r****--*^ tmi*m M-MMM* X i u e?» *>.-> ifa-J-tttOmn*. .\atitl|A'ii*1« «*. • u ••-* tik—. •* nattt m t^ P*«S flP> n ^ t T & i b...f w a_ i <y SECRET 3* With reference to 1 b. above, the cost of providing accommodation and scnooling for the US custodial detachment is not borne by infrastructure funds. It is a national responsibility for the user nations, and in this case, one which is a joint responsibility of Canada and UK as the SAS site is to be used by both countries. The schooling of US dependents is a reasonable commitment to accept as the US system of education mors closely resembles that ot Canada rather than the UK and acceptance would place Canada in a good bargaining position on other items related to the SAS site which are a joint Canada-UK responsibility. 4. With reference to 1 c. above, once again this is a 0* responsibility of the user nation. Sharing accommodation «>* fa /.o with the UK and thus sharing costs of construction will be the most economical way of meeting this requirement. 5. With reference to 1 d. above, since the UK cannot guarantee to meet all our requirements for 3rd line and base repairs it would be more economical and efficient to have all our 3rd line and base repairs to HOWEST JOHW rocket, launcher and associated specialist equipment of US origin done by the US. 6. With reference to 1 e. above, this method of providing for spare parts appears to be the best arrangement that can be made at present, and would parallel the proposed repair channel mentioned in paragraph 5 above. 7« I recommend that approval be given to the support arrangements listed in paragraph 1 above. <: P ^.VCLcJtP (SE Clark) Lieutenant-General Chief of the General Staff � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
