Under Secretary of the Air Force Brockway McMillan said in Journal of the Armed Forces article: "The Department of Defense and the Air Force in particular must provide every reasonable means of support to NASA and I know of no high official in DOD or the Air Force who does not share this conviction. . . . ' He pointed to "a conviction shared by both DOD and NASA that there must be a maximum of cross-pollination between respective programs. To do anything less would be short sighted and wasteful and would certainly indicate that we had failed to grasp the essentiality of the national space effort as a consensus. . . ."
