ENECISEMENT PRESENENT 1985 THE COMMITTEE January 15, 1985 FOR THE 50TH AMERICAN PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURAL fill Washington, D.C. here 20599 202/433-7100 MEMORANDUM TO MICHAEL K. DEAVER, GENERAL CHAIRMAN RONALD H. WALKER, CHAIRMAN JOHN F. ROGERS, GENERAL MANAGER FROM: FRED F. FIELDING GENERAL COUNSEL SUBJECT: Guidelines - 1985 Presidential Inauguration Support by the Department of Defense As you are aware, we have been meeting with the Department of Defense in order to work out guidelines governing the support that the DOD can appropriately provide to the Committee. Attached is a copy of these guidelines, which have been implemented previously and are now reduced to writing. We have had several meetings with the GAO as we formulated these guidelines, and I believe they will acknowledge this to be a good faith effort to accommodate the concerns they expressed about the 1981 Inaugural, in the absence of any legislative action. Attachment 1985 PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION SUPPORT BY THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE This memorandum provides guidance regarding inaugural support activities by Department of Defense civilian and military personnel. The inauguration of the President is a non-partisan event that symbolizes the enduring values of our democratic system of government. It is planned by the Presidential Inaugural Committee (PIC) and the Joint Con- gressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies (JCCIC), committees with no political function and no mission other than the planning and execution of the inaugural. The inauguration of the President has a unique meaning to the Armed Forces since it represents a change or continuation of command for the Commander-in-Chief. Additionally, it is an event rich in protocol and ceremonies -- areas in which the military has significant expertise. The Department, therefore, has traditionally provided a wide range of support to the PIC and the JCCIC in connection with the various inaugural activities. The Armed Forces Inaugural Committee (AFIC) plans, coordinates, and provides appropriate military support requested by the PIC and JCCIC. The AFIC is formed prior to the election to - 2 - begin initial inaugural planning in an apolitical fashion and to develop a staff well versed in the full scope of inaugural requirements. While it is impossible to codify every aspect of the support that may appropriately be rendered by the Department, given the complexity surrounding the planning and operation of the activities comprising the inaugural, the following guidelines attempt to deal with the most prominent areas in which military support may be rendered. Questions concern- ing military support that are not readily covered by these guidelines should be referred to PIC counsel, and to Headquarters, Department of the Army and the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Public Affairs) for resolution. These guidelines are necessary because of the failure of the Congress to respond to a 1983 opinion of the Comptroller General concerning military assistance for inaugural activities. That opinion concluded with a recommendation that Congress review such assistance and amend existing law either to conform with past practice known to and acquiesced in by Congress or expressly to prohibit practices for which it was difficult to ascertain specific statutory authority. Congress did neither, creating uncertainty with respect to what assistance was permitted and what was not. These guidelines represent a good faith effort to provide the necessary guidance. - 3 - It is intended that the guidelines will result in significantly reduced military assistance during the Inaugural celebration, compared with the 1981 Inaugural (which antedated, of course, the 1983 opinion). The guidelines anticipate limited military assistance. For example, when the military is authorized to coordinate the movement of groups participating in the parade, it is not intended that military transportation be used to move the group. Further, although military personnel may facilitate the orderly formation and progress of the parade, it is not intended that the military take charge of planning the parade. The role for the military recognized in the guidelines is one of limited assistance and support fully consistent with past practice and the special significance the inaugural holds for the military as the swearing-in of the Commander-in-Chief. TRANSPORTATION PIC cars driven by military personnel may be used for official purposes only and only by PIC, JCCIC, and AFIC members, and "Designated Inaugural Participants." The term "official purposes" means Inaugural Committee business. For example, transportation provided to and from Inaugural balls will be provided only to those qualified passengers who are working at the balls. - 4 - Transportation on shall not be provided for purely personal purposes. Transportation from residence to work shall be provided only with the approval of the PIC Chairman. Approval shall be given only when inaugural responsibilities could not be met in the absence of such transportation. "Designated Inaugural Participants" are those individuals who actually have a role in the official Inaugural events and have been designated by the PIC Chairman. Governors shall be considered Designated Inaugural Participants. MILITARY AIDES Military Aides will be provided to assist members of the First and Second Families and the Designated Inaugural Participants to meet their Inaugural schedules and responsi- bilities. MILITARY COORDINATORS Members of the military may be assigned to coordinate the arrival and movement within the metropolitan area of the various groups participating in the inaugural events. CEREMONIAL UNITS Members of the military will be assigned to coordinate the arrival, movement and departure of the President and/or - 5 - the Vice President at the various inaugural events. These members of the military will also provide assistance to ensure the orderly conduct of events at which the President and/or Vice President are scheduled to appear. They will not be used for routine administrative duties such as ticket taking, parking cars, etc. MEDICAL SUPPORT Medical units with appropriate personnel and supplies may be provided at official Inaugural events and at the Inaugural balls. Additionally, an aid station will provide emergency minor treatment and supplies for job related injuries and illnesses of the PIC staff. USHERS Military personnel may be used as ushers only at the actual public swearing-in ceremony and at the Presidential Reviewing Stand. INAUGURAL PARADE Military units will monitor and coordinate the parade for safety purposes, and will be used along the parade route. Security issues are to be directed to the Secret Service and Federal Bureau of Investigation. Military marching units may be authorized to participate in the parade. Military drivers, vehicles and equipment may be approved for use in the parade. - 6 - PUBLIC RELATIONS The military may provide public relations support consistent with the recording of its own role in the in- augural activities and with the recording of the ceremonies surrounding the swearing-in of the Commander-in-Chief. EQUIPMENT Military equipment, including communications equipment, may be used as needed by the AFIC in the discharge of its responsibilities. Technical support and equipment, such as 2-way radios, cellular phones and beepers, may be provided to the PIC thru GSA if requested.
