NSC 10/2: covert operations under NSC control

NSC 10/2, issued on 18 June 1948, created an Office of Special Projects inside the CIA for covert operations, with policy guidance from the State and Defense departments. It began the NSC's covert-action oversight chain. In UAP Gerb's reading, the crash-retrieval control group, the so-called MJ-12, was hidden inside that chain.
