To the left is a graphic of a bank vault door with intricate mechanical components and a glowing blue light emanating from within. The text below the title explains that the document was obtained from The Black Vault, an online database of declassified government documents, specifically mentioning the MKULTRA/Mind Control Collection housed within it, and provides a URL for accessing the collection. There are no photographs of people, locations, equipment, or subjects; no handwritten annotations, signatures, or marginalia; no official stamps; no forms with filled-in fields; no diagrams, schematics, or organizational charts; no tables or structured data; and no visible redactions or obscured content. The visual elements are limited to the title, the bank vault graphic, and the informational text. This document is a typewritten "Office Memorandum" from the United States Government, dated July 6, 1955. It features several black ink redactions obscuring portions of text, particularly in the "Attention" field and within the body of the memo regarding a "covert site" and "Security Support Division." Handwritten marginalia are present, including "B/3" in the lower left, "H-B/3" above the numbered paragraphs, and a large "A" near the top and another "A" towards the bottom. The document is a formal communication with standard memo fields like "TO," "FROM," and "SUBJECT."
