All national security classified material in Series I-V of the Vance Papers was segregated into boxes 83-87. It was then sent to the National Archives/Information Security Oversight Office (NARA/ISOO) for mandatory declassification review (MDR). The original documents will remain at the National Archives until declassification review is completed. As NARA/ISOO declassifies and returns the material, it will be opened and returned to folders in boxes 83-87.
