Preface
‘This reference aid was prepared primarily to fulfill a request
by the Office of the Chief of Peychological Warfare, Special Staff,
United States Army, for additional information about records in the
Departmental Records Branch (IRB) relating to psychological varfare.
‘As carly as November 1949, DRB, which is the depository of The
‘Majutent General's Office for nonourrent departmental records of the
Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Department of the Army, and
the Department of the Air Force and for certain other speciel cate-
gories of records, anticipated the ever-groving interest in records
relating to psychological warfare by issuing a reference aid entitled
"Records Pertaining to Psychological Warfare in Custody of Historical
Records Bection, TRB, 400," 16 pages. When the Secretary of the Army
issued a directive on the "Importance of Army-Wide Support of the
Psychological Werfare end Special Operations Program” on 19 February
1951 (file AGA-S 561 (1h Feb 51) PSYWAR-K), & copy of the 1949 refer-
ence aid vas transmitted imediately to the Chief of Psychological
Warfare. Recognizing the value of the information contained in that
issuance, that officer wrote the Chief, DRB on 6 April 1951 requesting
‘that "a broad, comprehensive survey of all materiale and records in
‘the oustody of DRB be initiated vith a view to providing the Office of
Paychological Warfare with a report citing references to all materiel
adaptable to psychological warfare activities.”
Bearing in mind the background thet led to the preparation of
thie current reference aid, an attempt has been made to be as specific
in desoribing individual documents as circumstances peraitted, without
Deing exhaustive. The term "psychological warfare" was interpreted in
ite widest sense: that is, "the use of all available media of commni-
cations for destroying the opponent's will to fight or resist." Thus
hundreds of individual documents anong the files in the custody of IRB
have been pinpointed to an extent that it is only necessary for the
inquirer who is authorized to use classified records to phone, write, or
visit DRB and request a specific item. The description of the records
by "record group," "subgroup," and “series” need not concern the non-
erohiviet too much. These technical terms are merely part of the
standard archival system of controlling lerge masses of documents.
Eeventially a “record series" or a "record subgroup" is a smaller part of
‘a larger body of records. The basic unit of control is the "record
group" (RG), which may be defined as a major archival unit thet usually
consists of the records of (1) a single bureau or other major sub-
@ivision in an executive department, (2) en independent agency, or (3)
several related suall agencies, boards, or committee:

In organizing the information into @ logical pattern it was felt
‘thst a description of records of combined (international) commands in
vhich the United States participated, like SHARF or AFHQ, should pre-
cede that of Aray and Air Force departmental units, with the portion
Pertaining to records of former German Government agencies being last
in view of their non-American origin and since they are mainly in the
German language. The organization of the information vithin each
record group does not conform to any preconceived pattern. The arrange-
nent of the records thenselves and a desire to make this arrangement
meaningful even to a first-time researcher largely determined that
pattern. The unevenness of space alloted to any one record group does
not necessarily indicate any "discriminatory" practice: it usually
means that the staff member of IRB who analyzed a record group and the
existing finding aids that unlock its contents was able, within a
reasonable tine limitation, to uncover either a greater or a lesser mm-
Der of iteus of obvious interest to students of psychological varfare. 7
In one case, that of RG 940, vbich pertains to records of Allied Force
Headquarters, Mediterranean Theater, a conscious effort vas made to
delve into a disproportionate amount of detail primerily for two
reagons: (1) to overcome the natural reticence of researches weaned on
‘the paper record to use the microfilm record; and (2) to demonstrate
‘the Value of detailed and exhaustive guides and inventories, vhich are
cited in the text, particularly when they are prepared as close to the
“source” as possible by competent archivists.
Certain features have been added herein that ordinarily are not
included in a reference aia. To increase the overall usability of thie
ieguance an index has been prepared. To provide the reader with
information of value, which did not belong in the text proper an
appendix has been added iting printed or processed nonrecord materials
uaintained in IRB for reference purposes and not identified vith
or in record files. Lastly, to strike » "happy medium" between the
two schools of thought on the use of military abbreviations the fev
toms that bave been abbreviated in the text are explained in the index.
The code nanes of operational plans have been capitalized throughout the
text.
Many steff members of IRB contributed to the production of this
reference aid. Seymour J. Pomrenze, the Archivist for Departmental
Records, vas primarily responsible for planning and directing the Le
project. Mirian Johnson, Heman Goldbeck, Russel D. Mikel, Ethelyn
Faith, Catherine Dizon, Joo Avery, and others collected the data and pre-
pered the initial drafts; and Helene Bowen and Philip P. Brover reviewed
and edited the text. The index vas prepared by meubers of the Executive
and the General Reference Sections.

‘RECORDS OF COMBINED MILITARY AGENCIES
Records of the Supreme Headquarters, Allied Expeditionary Forces (RG 910)
‘The staff function for psychological warfare activities in AEF was
vested in PYD, SHAEF, Although the bulk of the records concerning the
subject are in the files of that division, pertinent records are avail-
able in other staff divisions of SHAEF, notably those of the Secretary,
General Staff, which serve ‘the office of record for the Supreme
Allied Commander, the Deputy Supreme Allied Commander, and the Chief of
Staff; of Headquarters Command; of the Adjutant General; of the G-1,
G-2, 6-3, G-b, and C-5 Divisions; of the Public Relations Division; of
‘the Signal Diviaion; and of the Air Staff. Records consist of corre-
spondence, radiogrems, reports, presa releases, newspaper clippings,
pamphlets, and other pepers, 1913-5. Inventories of the records of
SHAEF are available in DRB.
PHD, SHAEF, defined psychological varfare as "the dissemination of
propaganda designed to undermine the enemy's will to resist, demoralize
hie forces and sustein the morale of our supporters." Propaganda vas
Aivided into three classes: (1) strategic propeganda directed on enemy
and eneny-occupied countries; (2) combat propaganda conducted against
enemy forces in the forvard areas and toward the population immediately
behind the enemy lines; and (3) consolidation propaganda conducted
toward the civil population in the rear ereas, with a view to insuring
friendly cooperation, particularly in restoring essential services, and
in creating opinions favorable to the ver and postwar aims of the
Unites Nations.
