CUA--PRIVILEGED
Project Transition, for skills training during the last six months
of service; and the Marine Corps Youth Physical Fitness Program.
He mentioned the great receptivity of the services: some 2500
suggestions had come back from the Air Force alone in response
to a request for ideas.
The President asked Mr. Packard if he has been personally
involved, and Mr. Packard replied that he had been somewhat
involved. The President asked if he could find an opportunity
during the next month to evaluate what more can be done.
Dr. DuBridge suggested it might be useful in the areas of
housing and training technology, for there to be a far greater
Defense Department role. Also it would be helpful if the Council
for Urban Affairs were to create a task force to work on say man-
power, or housing. The activity within the Defense Department
is strengthened if the CUA endorses the collaborative arrange-
ments.
The President noted that "I do not buy at all this malarkey
about a defense-industrial complex, and whether we have civilian
control. We have it. 11 The figure of 4-1/2 million persons involved
in the department offers far more opportunities than are outlined in
the report.
