Defending the Administration's decision, Clifford underscored Sentinel's real value-as a deterrent to further Soviet moves in the ABM field. "If they [the Soviets] develop and deploy a workable ABM system and we do not," he declared, "we are at a disadvantage." His logic made an impact.

In addition, his work will be shown later this month at West Germany's prestigious Dokumenta...
