I made inquiries to MITRE within the last 2 years
about any of the TOs on
that list that they might have in their archives. Their reply was, they had
no provisions for releasing them to the public. I even offered to visit and
photograph them, but no, sorry.
I run into this ALL the time talking to old timers. They insist what
they worked on was TOP SECRET and that they will be shot if they even
mention a vague detail. Just try convincing them that their project
was declassified 30 years ago...
Then again, if nobody bothered to tell them, being shot is a good
reason to keep your mouth shut until the coffin lid closes.
