Series
This series contains material prepared for and by President Gerald R. Ford's National Security Adviser and National Security Council staff. Memoranda, reports, briefing papers, schedule proposals, and telegrams make up the bulk of the series.
Many significant foreign policy events are covered in these files. Among these are the wars and their aftermath in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos; seizure of the ship "Mayaguez" and subsequent investigations into the administration's handling of the incident; and the normalization process for relations with the People's Republic of China. Other major topics are U.S. military bases and the presence of American troops, especially in Thailand, Philippines, Diego Garcia, Republic of China (Taiwan) and North and South Korea. General topics covered throughout the collection include trade, arms transfers, mutual defense agreements, and meetings between American and foreign leaders.
Documents concerning President Ford's trips to the region are also available. The President visited Japan and Korea in 1974, and the People's Republic of China, Indonesia, and the Philippines in 1975.
In addition, materials on the following countries appear: Australia, Brunei, Burma, Fiji, Guam, Hong Kong, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, and Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands.
State Department telegrams provide an interesting look at international relations and communications between officials in Washington and staff at embassies throughout the region. They are valuable for on-the-scene current reporting and analyses of conversations and events.

Series
This series contains memoranda, letters, telegrams, draft Presidential speeches and statements, briefing papers, notes, and occasional memoranda of conversations. The materials concern policy matters, coordination of decision papers for President Gerald Ford, and operation of the National Security Council. Included are copies of substantive Henry Kissinger and Brent Scowcroft memoranda to President Ford and White House staff drafted by Robert McFarlane; notes and memoranda to Kissinger, Scowcroft, or William Hyland; and cables sent to Kissinger or Scowcroft during trips.
The series covers a wide variety of policy matters, but does not really present a full picture on any. Attachments referred to in the memoranda often do not appear in the file. Many topics are represented by only a few scattered documents. The series' most substantive topic, in quantity and quality, is the intelligence investigations and proposed reforms of the intelligence community. Specific topics include the Church Committee (U.S. Senate Select Committee to Study Government Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities), including its requests for documents; Pike Committee (U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on Intelligence) Rockefeller Commission (Commission on Central Intelligence Agency Activities in the United States), especially its report and attempts to implement its recommendations; President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board; and the Intelligence Coordinating Group, including handwritten notes from its meetings.
Other topics with significant amounts of scattered material include foreign aid legislation, congressional liaison (early months only), review of the Murphy Commission (Commission on the Organization of the Government for the Conduct of Foreign Policy) report, Vietnamese War (especially aid to Cambodia and South Vietnam and the evacuations), American policies in Africa, and aid to Turkey. Some campaign-related items concerning attacks on the administration's foreign policy by Ronald Reagan appear, as do materials on the platform, President Ford's convention acceptance speech, and the debates.
Several memoranda of conversations appear in the series, but none cover meetings attended by the President.

Series
The series contains periodic compilations prepared for former President Richard Nixon to keep him updated on developments around the world that might impact U.S. foreign affairs policies. The briefings were not intended to cover every foreign affairs development, just the most significant ones. Although news notes about various countries appear, they disproportionately concern the Soviet Union and China. There are also significant numbers of items on our NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) allies, especially France, West Germany, and the United Kingdom. Another major focus was developments in Indochina during the closing months of the Vietnam War. Many developments concerning OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries), the Cyprus crisis, and tensions and negotiations in the Middle East also appear.
