714. JENNER reported to the Security Officer at the U.S.Embassy upon his arrival that he had been contacted by twoSoviet students from Vyborg, a young man and a woman, onthe Helsinki-Moscow train. He also reported having beengiven a telephone number by the girl and later reportedhaving been recontacted by her at the Moscow airport.CIA has documentary evidence, in the form of officialFinnish train manifests, that JENNER travelled from Helsinkito Moscow by train on 31 March 1960. This document showsthat JENNER travelled alone and no Soviets were aboard whenthe train left Helsinki. CIA also has an official travelmanifest showing that KOSOLAPOV, using the name KOLOSOV,travelled from Helsinki to Moscow by rail on 2 April 1960,two days later, and that no Americans travelled on this trainwith him. NOSENKO identified KOLOSOV's photograph as thatof his subordinate KOSOLAPOV. (NOSENKO earlier said thathe did not know whether KOSOLAPOV used an alias for thistrip, what that alias might have been, or whether KOSOLAPOVhad an alias passport; he agreed that he would have had toauthorize such a passport.) When he was told of CIA evidencethat KOSOLAPOV did not travel on the same train as JENNERand therefore could not have met and talked with him asNOSENKO had reported, NOSENKO refused to believe it; he in-sisted that he had read the reports of both KOSOLAPOV andGRYAZNOV, and that the events were exactly as he describedthem.(iii) The GARLAND CaseGOLITSYN told CIA after his defection that while he wasstationed in Helsinki, probably in November--not March--1960,KOSOLAPOV travelled to Finland under alias and commercialcover in order to make the acquaintance of an American codeclerk on the Helsinki-Moscow train. KOSOLAPOV's arrival hadbeen announced by a cable from KGB Headquarters to theHelsinki Legal Residency. According to GOLITSYN, the LegalResidency learned which train this American was to board andsucceeded in placing KOSOLAPOV in the same compartment withhim. GOLITSYN saw KOSOLAPOV board the train with this Ameri-can. Later, when another American Department officer visitedHelsinki, GOLITSYN asked him how KOSOLAPOV's operation withthe code clerk had gone; from the officer's refusal to answer,GOLITSYN assumed that it had been a success.CIA travel records show that KOSOLAPOV made a secondtrip to Helsinki in November 1960, again under the KOLOSOValias. Finnish railroad manifests show that KOSOLAPOV leftHelsinki by train on 16 November 1960 and that one of histravelling companions on this train was GARLAND, who wasen route to Moscow to assume his duties as chief of theState Department code room at the American Embassy (Page198). There were no other Americans on this train.Told that KOSOLAPOV had made a trip to Helsinki inNovember 1960 and had travelled to Moscow on the same trainas an American code clerk, one of his own targets, NOSENKOsaid that this could not be. He agreed that, as in the caseof KOSOLAPOV's trip to meet JENNER, he would necessarilyhave been involved in the planning of such a second tripand would have had to approve arrangements and correspondencein connection with it. Even if such a trip took place whenNOSENKO was out of Moscow, he said, the details of it wouldTOP SECRET
