Sure would be helpful if there was a DATE telling us when this MEMO was written and put into effect. All I keep reading is 1995, and it sure did not take a YEAR to write and put this policy into effect.

Sure would be helpful if there was a DATE telling us when this MEMO was written and put into effect.

There is no date on the memo other than April 10, 2004, when it was declassified. Here is a link to the DOJ's published copy.

The area where the new declassify order, signature and date are on the copy may cover the original classify order, signature and date. But we in the general public have no way to tell.
