During the period under review he handled a most complex and delicate exploitation and termination of a high level ALSOBER penetration with CKPOLAR ramifications with a substantial degree of success. He has also served, in his capacity as deputy base chief, as counsellor and provider of guidance to case officers concerning virtually all of the Base's operations and particularly the more complex and difficult agent cases. His unusually keen intuition and perceptiveness have consistently helped the Base to avoid pitfalls and recognize important but obscure operational factors.

He is a strong considerate supervisor with potential for growth. The failure to get out on the street and recruit during the past year (I am not familiar with previous experience) can be partly attributed to immersion in the complex, time consuming surfacing/disposal case, but must also be attributed partly to his personality (or at least his mood at that stage of his tour). Subject is perhaps more comfortable, or seemed to be during the rating period, handling going agents (Indigenous and NOC's) which he does superbly, (continued)DATE9 July 73OFFICIAL TITLE OF REVIEWING OFFICIALCOSTYPED OR PRINTED NAME AND SIGNATURE/s/ Wilfred KopolowitzCONFIDENTIAL
