As of 14 February 1997 the NSA is no longer passing out free hardcopy of the Rainbow books to mere citizens. If you aren't satisfied with what's online, don't bother contacting the Government Printing Office, cause the whole series is outta print as far as they are concerned. The RUMINT is that the National Technical Information Service will sell you hardcopy if you contact them [sorry, I don't have a price list...]

OTOH, if you cash a US Government paycheck [direct hire, contractor, etc] you can request complimentary copies of these publications from the NSA Information System Security Organization Service Center, call

(800) 688-6115 or
(410) 684-7661

Department of Defense
