Advisory Committee
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The DoD Historical Advisory Committee is being established in
consonance with the public interest, and in accordance with the
provisions of Public Law 92-463, the ``Federal Advisory Committee
Act.'' This Committee will replace three historical advisory committees
of the military departments which were terminated September 30, 1993 in
response to Executive Order 12838, Office of Management and Budget
Bulletin 93-10, ``Termination and Limitation of Federal Advisory
Committees.''
The DoD Historical Advisory Committee will provide advice to the
Secretary of Defense, the secretaries of the military departments, and
the heads of other DoD components who participate, regarding the
professional standards, historical methodology, program priorities,
liaison with professional groups and institutions, and adequacy of
resources connected with the various historical programs and associated
activities of the DoD. These include historical, archival, museum,
library, art, curatorial, and related programs.
The Committee will be composed of a diverse group of experts in
historical disciplines, numbering 35 to 40 members who represent
academic and professional institutions, and other historical fields of
endeavor. Efforts will be made to ensure a balanced membership,
considering the functions to be performed and the interest groups
represented.
For further information regarding the DoD Historical Advisory
Committee, contact: Dr. Alfred Goldberg, the OSD Historian, (703)
