Case Reference: ISCAP Appeal Number 2014-048, File 3
In October 1963, a Top Secret document was sent, but its sender, recipient, and location remain undisclosed. Classified under Executive Order (E.O.) 13526, section 3.3(b)(1) as 50X1, this document contains highly sensitive national defense information.
This classification level signifies that the information involves military plans, weapons systems, or operations, and unauthorized disclosure could cause exceptionally grave damage to the national security.
The document, labelled as ISCAP Appeal No. 2014-048, Document No. 3, was reviewed by the Interagency Security Classification Appeals Panel (ISCAP) in 2016. ISCAP assessed whether continued classification under E.O. 13526 §§ 3.3(b)(1) (50X1) was justified.
ISCAP considered factors such as the nature and sensitivity of the information, potential national security harm from disclosure, changes in context or time, and arguments from the responsible agency and any appeal petitioners.
Upon review, ISCAP decided that the risk of damage remained exceptionally grave, and the document was left classified in its entirety.
The document, now housed at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, is a single page and falls under the category of a telegram. Its purpose remains unspecified.
For more details regarding the specifics of the appeal's outcome or the document's contents, official ISCAP decision documents or declassified records would be necessary. For further information, please contact [email protected].
