CIA and Navy clash over Glomar Explorer salvage plan

The origins of the Glomar Explorer salvage project involve the CIA science and technology office and the research and development branch. CIA officials say coordination with the Navy was smooth, while many Navy officials criticize the operation as unauthorized interference with a foreign sunken vessel. High level Nixon aides doubted legal barriers but proceeded. Intelligence leaders note Russia likely learned of the plans from press reports.
