Always a strong performer, Subject has continued to mature and improve during the reporting period. Early in the year he took over the Station's operational support team for several months, handling them extremely well, while developing a new team on the outside. In July he assumed primary responsibility for the Station's new REDTOP program and has done an outstanding job, of keeping abreast of REDTOP activities here and exploiting those opportunities which have occurred despite a seriously understaffed section. At the same time he is continuing to direct one outside contract agent, service an audio operation and still found time to develop another particularly important new audio operation up to its final stages of implementation. These tasks reflect the Station's confidence in and reliance on Subject who is giving an overall outstanding performance.Subject's greatest strengths are good judgement, enthusiasim, dynamism and an ability to grasp the major elements of any task and handle them quickly and intelligently. He is personable and mixes well. During the year he has made excellent progress in expanding his contacts throughout the Colombian community and selecting and developing those that can be of use to the Station. He is aided in this by his wife who is attractive, has excellent Spanish and is a great addition to his work.## SECTION D1. DATE4 Feb. 19692.
