The Cutler-Twining memo (July 14, 1954) referencing “NSC/MJ-12 Special Studies Project” is the only document found in National Archives records that mentions MJ-12 by name. NARA documented 10 specific problems with its authenticity: (1) No Top Secret register number — required for all documents of that classification; (2) Filed alone in its folder — no related documents; (3) “Top Secret Restricted Information” classification marking did not exist at NSC until the Nixon Administration — not used during Eisenhower; (4) No eagle watermark — all Cutler documents had eagle watermarks on bond paper; (5) No official government letterhead or watermark; (6) NSA conservation specialist: prepared on “diction onionskin” — inconsistent with official NSC documents; (7) No NSC meeting record for July 16, 1954 in any archives; (8) No MJ-12 or Majestic mention in ANY NSC meeting minutes for July 1954; (9) Eisenhower’s appointment books contain no entry for a special MJ-12 briefing on July 16, 1954; (10) CRITICALLY: Robert Cutler was documented to be visiting military installations in EUROPE AND NORTH AFRICA between July 3 and July 15, 1954 — the date he supposedly signed the memo. His return memorandum to Eisenhower is dated July 20, 1954. Despite all these problems, the document remains in Record Group 341 at NARA. No one has been charged with forgery.
