Description
This five-page typed photocopied unclassified document was sent to the Director of the FBI, Clarence M. Kelley, on May 21, 1976. It compiles information from an unknown source on the surveillance of "Dog Soldiers," supposed guerrilla warriors loyal to the American Indian Movement. The document alleges that these soldiers have been training since the Wounded Knee Occupation in 1973. It further states that the Sioux Sun Dance and International Treaty Conference will serve as a cover for these soldiers to be assigned various targets throughout South Dakota, including a court house, Mount Rushmore, the Governor of South Dakota and the State Penitentiary in Sioux Falls. This document mentions various high-ranking members within the American Movement, including Russell Means.
