221CI/RIARe: AMPHODARCH/Arthur G. VAIVADACI Staff notes that training for VAIVADA is scheduled to commence on the same date in the same city as the training scheduled for Colonel PEREZ and Lt. CASTANO of the Cuban BRAC. This situation seems inherently dangerous and unwarranted by the circumstances as known to CI Staff. Pending further justification CI Staff cannot concur in the training as requested, but would of course concur in the training for VAIVADA if the locale vere shifted to another city such as New York.(This is basically an operational or an operational security matter. CI/R&A/TRB therefore urges that CI/OPS/WH and CI/OA discuss the problem with the desk, and resolve it if possible. CI/R&A/TRB will of course defer to CI/OPS AND CI/OA in this matter.)D: 14 Dec. 56InBender

COVERISCI/085CI/OPS/WH does not concur with the CI/R & A recommendations as set forth for the following reasons:1.  The security compromise would only stem from the two BRAC officers identifying the VAIVADA affiliation and training on behalf of this agency. This appears extremely remote as the desk advised there is no indication that the ERAC officers know VAIVADA either by name or sight.2.  While VAIVADA is being trained, his wife will be attending citizenship classes in D.C. preparing for her citizenship examination before returning to Cuba. Consequently, it would be a financial drain for VAIVADA to stay in New York City and his wife in D.C. In addition, certain per diem costs would be incurred by the Case Officer traveling to New York City to monitor some of the OTR training.3.  The desk will instruct OTR of this joint training aspect and as a precautionary measure, request that training sites, hours, etc. de not overlap.DATE:1st Dec 1916Robert L. Brown

SECRET20 December 1956TO : C/CI/OAFROM : C/CI/TCDSUBJECT: Comments and Recommendations on Proposed Covert Training of Arthur G. VAIVADAREFERENCE: Covert Training Request for Arthur C. VAIVADA of 4 December 19561. Arthur G. VAIVADA has worked principally, and successfully so, on CP penetration operations since employment by the Agency. His current work involves the handling of a net of CP penetration agents and informants. ICD concurs in general with the projected training scheduled for subject but recommends that considerable emphasis specifically be placed on anti-CP penetration operations (i.e., principles and practices of penetration of the international Communist Movement).2. In addition, subject should also be given materials and briefings on Communism in his area of operations. It is suggested that he be given the following materials to study and discuss during the phase of training recommended above: "The Operational Pattern of International Communism in Latin America" (a paper prepared by CI/ICD) and "The Communist Movement of Cuba" (a paper prepared by Miss Anne Kendall). These materials may be borrowed either from CI/ICD/WH (Hein) or from WE/II/Cuba (Boland).3. Should OTR contemplate presenting in any form any of the CP penetration case studies contained in FEB 52-865-4 ("The CP Penetration Program"- Issue No. 4) to subject during the training sessions, CI/ICD (Hein - extension 3919) should be consulted. Some of the material in FEB 52-865-4 directly concerns VAIVADA's previous operational work.CI/ICD/WHeinsgmh(20 December 1956)Distribution: Original & 1 - addressee1 - Hein1 - Chrono1 - ICD/WHSECRET
