One of my favorite comments to write in my code was "This work is a research product of the United States Government. It is free to use without reservation or restriction."

Additional bonus fact: basic research is by definition not classifiable. The purposes of a study may be, but the results? They need to be shared through DTIC.
Damn near all 6.1-3. I need to dig the citation out, it's one of the EOs that established the current clarification system. DTIC should be a smorgasbord of free data and methods, I wanted to stick around a neighboring agency to be the DTIC hatchet man. We sure paid for the data.
Right on. Yeah, it's possible, but I always argue real strict scrutiny for those calls. I know we're all Very Important, but the EOs are clear on these - the standard is freely accessible.

Any chance that exists in production or public source code now?
We need more things published in DTIC.
I’m tangentially aware of a some topics that that typically don’t go to DTIC because of classification issues.
