# CONFIDENTIAL## FITNESS REPORTDaniel Flores### NARRATIVE COMMENTScont.movements of an operational target, and to devise a secure and timely method of approach to the individual Cuban.In comparing Mr. Flores' performance as an operations officer and as a supervisor, I believe his perfomance is somewhat stronger in the former capacity. Mr. Flores has all the attributes of an excellent case officer: he is aggressive, thinks operationally, and is fast on his feet in an operational situation. He is further aided by his fluency in Spanish and has on more than one occasion successfully passed himself off as a Mexican businessman. During his TDY travels, he has repeatedly demonstrated dedication to the job at hand, willingness to work long hours, and a flexibility to handle all types of situations.Mr. Flores is less enthusiastic when it comes to the paperwork and bureau- cratic requirements of his position, while he is a good writer, he tends to handle his written tasks in a hurried manner and consequently, his work oftentimes requires review. He is also inclined to take the shorter and easier approach when handling the paper flow requirements. I mention these points not because they represent basic shortcomings, but simply to contrast them to his exceptionally high performance in his operations officer capacity.In sum, Mr. Flores is an extremely experienced, competent and well motivated operations officer. His talent as a "street operator" with a keen sense for the human target has been amply demonstrated. He has now quite successfully been introduced to his first supervisory position and proven that he is competent for assignments of this nature. I believe Mr. Flores is capable of handling positions of increasing responsibility and should be given the opportunity to do so.CONFIDENTIAL

On completion of the Workshop, Subject returned to the Unit for further familiarization with the routine of the Unit, assisted in several surveillance problems, and monitored a two-week training program which included active participation as a trainee himself in the SAI (or persuasion skills) portion of the program. Subsequently Mr. Flores assisted as a role-player in a brief but significant program involving the training of a prominent U.S. citizen assisting the Agency in southern Africa. Mr. Flores then assisted another instructor in devising and conducting the first program this Unit has undertaken designed to teach surveillance awareness/detection to Staff Employees who are deemed likely to be subjects of terrorist surveillance and attack.

SECRETContinuation of Section D of Fitness Report on Daniel Flores,GS-12, for period 22 June - 19 November 1976niques for a U.S. citizen who is scheduled to serve as an NOCOfficer in the Caribbean.The first independent training task given to Mr. Floreswas of a third-national field agent serving as an access agent,but this task was cancelled at the last minute when the con-cerned Base discovered grounds for field termination of theagent rather than providing tutorial training for the agent inthe U.S. Mr. Flores was justifiably irritated at this turn ofevents which denied him what held promise for being a challeng-ing initial training program.It was with regret that we learned, early into what turnedout to be Mr. Flores' only independent training program, thata priority requirement of his home-base Division would necessi-tate his return to Division duty soonest. The Division agreedto our request that Mr. Flores conclude the training programhe had tailored, and begun, and Mr. Flores is to be commendedfor having done an exceptionally fine job in this assignment.The completion-of-training report was also well organized, andthe questionnaire which asks for an evaluative follow-up fromthe trainee's field Station is to the point.Farly in his assignment Mr. Flores took over the mainten-ance and improvement of the Unit's operations training slides,consolidated them into an extremely functional package, andsolicited ideas from other instructors to improve the package.Much to his credit and the Unit's benefit, Mr. Flores managedto persuade another Agency component to undertake--withoutcharge--a major revamping of some of the slides using computor-designed art work to replace some of the less impressive earlywork in this field.SECRET
