TOP SECRET
11. Any US military assistance program should be predicated
to the maximum practicable extent upon the self-help and mutual
assistance of recipient states.
12. The military assistance program should be governed by the
following considerations:
a.
The program should not jeopardize the fulfillment of
the minimum materiel requirements of the United States armed
forces, as determined by the Joint Chief's of Staff.
b. The program should not be inconsistent with stra-
tegic concepts approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
C.
Certain factors, such as the need for strengthening
the morale and internal security of recipient nations and pro-
tecting various US interests abroad, may in exceptional cases
become over-riding political considerations modifying the
strict application of paragraphs a and b above.
d. Continuing support for the program should be planned
to include supply of needed replacements, spare parts and
ammunition so long as our security interests dictate.
e.
The program should be properly integrated with the
ECA program, and should not be permitted to jeopardize the
economic stability of the United States or other participating
nations. The program should be subject to review and recom-
mendation by the National Security Resources Board in order to
insure a sound balancing of requirements under the military
aid program with US domestic requirements.
