# SECRET## SECTION C NARRATIVE COMMENTSIndicate significant strengths or weaknesses demonstrated in current position keeping in proper perspective their relationship to overall performance. State suggestions made for improvement of work performance. Give recommendations for training. Comment on foreign language competence, if required for current position. Amplify or explain ratings given in Section B to provide best basis for determining future personnel action. Manner of performance of managerial or supervisory duties and cost consciousness in the use of personnel, space, equipment and funds, must be commented on if applicable. If extra space is needed to complete Section C, attach a separate sheet of paper.This officer has continued to give a uniformly strong or better performance during the rating period. Comments in his previous fitness report continue to apply. He has received slightly lower ratings for some specific duties in Section B only because he received a well-deserved promotion last year and now must be evaluated in comparison with other GS-14's.

He added three new members to our stable of REDTOP access agents, developed an intensive target analysis program and improved our REDTOP reporting in general to the point where it has been commended by Headquarters. The most recent Hdq's evaluation stated: "The efforts against PTL Soviets show imagination and sound analysis, and reporting has improved greatly. The changes in the PTL are reasonable and the Station's support operations are well-tailored to provide information of use in programming human access to the Soviets on the PTL. Lastly, plans for the next half-year are realistic. We are encouraged by the Station's unmistakable positive attitude about the prospects of the effort against this difficult target."

A comment is also in order in regard to his possible cautiousness which is mentioned in the narrative portion of the report. Subject is a truly professional officer and especially adept at CI/FI. He is therefore able to quickly spot some weaknesses in proposed operations and quite properly and always accurately, points these out. On the other hand, in the Latin American environment some risks are acceptable which would not be tolerable in a situation where a higher degree of professionalism is mandatory. At times I have been in the anomalous position of approving an operation which Subject, perceptibly (cont)| 12 April 1971 | OFFICIAL TITLE OF REVIEWING OFFICIAL | TYPED OR PRINTED NAME AND SIGNATURE || ------------- | ------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------- ||               | COS                                  | /s// Dino J.
