Native American Affairs and the Department of Defense
President Clinton's April 29, 1994 executive branch memorandum directed the heads of all departments and agencies to operate and consult with federally recognized tribal governments government-to-government and with greater awareness of tribal rights and concerns. This report reviews the implications for the Department of Defense of this memorandum and recent statutes and regulations affecting Native Americans, growing political awareness and activism, and the U.S. Army's historical role in Indian affairs. It is part of a larger study on conservation policy as it relates to the Department of Defense's natural and cultural resource program. Conclusions and recommendations are included, as is a list of federally recognized Indian tribes.
