# DISPATCHTOINFOFROMSUBJECTACTION REQUIREDREFERENCE(S)employees. LICALLA is so situated that photographs can be made of targetper sonnel in the garden area of LIME RICK, LIEMPTY/9 is the base operatorfor LICALLA and in the Station's opinion performs his job in an outstandingmanner. As reported in IMMA-11368, LIEMPTY/9 is the brother of formerLIPSTICK/47 (the first LIPSTICK surveillance team member arrested inJune 1958). No repercussions, or indications of any impending ones, haveres ult ed in this family relationship. This, certainly, is the major securityproblem faced by L/9 during this reporting period. L/9 and his family soonwill have to vacate the LICALLA base for the period of time required to remodelit. The Station is quite sure that L/9 does not know that his covert employerowns the LICALLA base and the three adjoining houses and every effort isbeing made to preserve this secret from L/9. (See HMMA-12032, 28 January1959, for a more detailed explanation.) Of course, during the remodeling ofLICALLA there will not be any LICALLA reporting or photographs. In additionto taking approximately 2, 500 photographs during this six-month period, theLICALLA base also prepared weekly reports on LIMERICK garden activities,These reports indicate which LIMERICK employees are seen together each day,which vehicles different employees are accustomed to using, construction activit lesand other matters which appear of significance to L/9.D. LIENTRAP - LIENTRAP continues to be a worthwhtie Station asset,Approximately 1,400 clandestin e photographs have been made of numeroustargets during this reporting period and LIENTRAP type activities will undoubtedlyremain one of the Station's best investigative asses, As explained in the FieldPro ject Outl ine, forwarded to Head quarters on 8 Getober 1958, the Station isof the opinion that the LIENTRAP vehicle should be replaced as soon as possible.Nearly four months have elapsed without receiving Headquarters authority toreplace the vehicle. The security situation is even more acute now than at thetime of the request, LIEMPTYS 10 and 11 do an excellent job on LIENTRAPope rations,E. LIJERSEY - This operation can be characterized as somewhat dormantfor the July December 1958 period, Because of GERENDE's other importantactivities, he did not have the time to train and work with the surveillance team,Also, the Station considered that it would be stretching security just a bit too farto have GERENDE engaged in surveillance at the same time that he was handlingthe photographic base houses and performing monitoring chores for LIFEAT/BGMORNING and LIF EAT/Cuban Exiles. The expected arrival of Simon D.CLACKETT in April and his relieving GERENDE of LIJERSEY will enablethe Station to train, within a year, an efficient mobile surveillance team,At present, LIEMPTYS/15, 16 and 17 compose the LIERSEY team,F, LIF EAT - Until 10 December 1958 GERENDE served as monito rin the base house containing LIF EAT/BG MORNING and LIFEAT/CubanExiles. In addition to living in the base house, GERENDE also transer ibedthe majority of the BGMORNING and Cuban Exile tapes. He performedthese jobs satisfactorily even though his efficiency was handicapped by numerousother duties. Relieving GERENDE of his LIFEAT duties enables him to devotemore time to his other operations with a corresponding increase in the securityof all his activities.
