4. early in 1971, Flag was divided into 3 orgs: Flag Bureaux, Flag Admin Org, and the Flag Ship Org. The Flag Bureaux, the International Management Org was the first to be formed fully. It is the Founding Org of the other two. It is doing very well and has stats booming in most areas and is heavily in the mission business. It is mostly involved in establishing the Continental Liaison Offices such as U. S. Liaison Office, UK Liaison Office, etc. These are duplicates of the Flag Bureaux for their areas. Its color flash is green. These are the Board of Directors and aides and their staffs. The Bureaux Org Board is essentially the 1967 Seven Division original org board with four branches in production: Data No. 10, Action No. 11, External Comm-Transport No. 11A and Org Management Branch No. 12. All under an Operations Aide Bureau IV. Instead of Divs they are Bureaux. Instead of depts they are branches. Section is retained. Each of these Division IV Branches is traditionally called a Bureau-thus they are referred to as the Data Bureau (collects-, condenses, evaluates and distributes data), Action Bureau (plans, briefs and operates missions), the External Comm Bureau and the Management Bureau. (FO 2856)

5. the "Flag Org" or "Aide Divisional Opposite Number System" are combined with the bureaux system. All persons in both the "Flag Org" and Bureaux will be used in the new pattern. Flag Org functions just transfer into the 7 Div Org Board. An aide will be in charge of each division and these divisions will adopt the same org board. The name will now be Flag Bureaux, thus combining "Flag Org" and "SO Central Bureaux" into one name, Flag Bureaux (FO 2617) 6. the name of the Central Bureaux on Flag. It now combines the old Flag Org with the Bureaux. (FBDL 12)
