Bob said that CIA had already rereviewed various versions of Slawson’s report and he subsequently sent me the attached sheets that show final action and the CIA’s RIF numbers. However, he only sent me the final text of the 55-page version.

Memorandum From the Central Intelligence Agency Project Officer for Operation Mongoose (Harvey) to the Chief of ‘Operations, Operation Mongoose (Lansdale) Washington, October 8, 1962. SUBJECT Sabotage of Cuban-Owned Ship 1. Itisrequested that you present the following proposal to the Spe- cial Group (Augmented) for policy approval. 2. Policy approval is requested to permit the sabotage of Cuban- owned vessels wherever and whenever secure access to them can be attained, normally this will be in non-Bloc ports. Attacks against the Cuban-dwned ships must be considered essentially as attacks against targets of opportunity in the sense that in most cases there will be little advance information prior to the arrival of the ship in a non-Bloc port , and the duration of the port call will be limited. 3.. The following specific types of action are contemplated: - (13 paragraphs (40 lines of source text) not declassified] 6. It is necessary to submit the request for policy approval in a somewhat more general form than usual to permit us to take advantage of targets of opportunity as they occur. In most cases we will not have sufficient advance notice of the arrival of the ship or have sufficient access to the ship to permit the preparation and submission of detailed . individual approval requests in advance. In every case where tiie and circumstance permit, specific proposals will be submitted to the Special Group (Augmented) for approval. Any case involving unusual opera- tional or security risks will be submitted in advance for Special Group (Augmented) approval. 7. Later we will submit requests for policy approval of actions against other ships supplying Cuba. William K. Harvey! Source: Department of State, ARA/CCA Files: Lot 66 D 501, Operation Mongoose.

State Department forwarded a letter w/attachments dated 18 April 1997 (copy attached) indicating that seven of the enclosed documents forwarded for JFK review were also the subject of previous Agency reviews for the FRUS volumes on Cuba. The document numbers listed in the letter were numbered for the JFK review. I located the first document as already sanitized and published in Vol. XI. I phoned Nina Noring of State to see if she could give me the corresponding FRUS numbers which are listed below: Previous JFK No. Doc Date Doc Type FRUS Vol. FRUS No. Treatment 11-22A 80ct62 Memo XI cu Ir 16 GIP ~- {Copy attached as published in FRUS.] 11-26 31May62 Memo x cU 281 GIP* 11-27 L7May62 Report x cu 279 GIF** 11-38 25Ju162 Note w/ x CU 297 GIP* report 11-48 1lAug62 Report x (See note below] 11-49 . 31Aug62 - Memo w/ x CU 329 .

Susan Weetman from State phoned with the following concerning our FRUS review: CU 329 was forwarded to State sanitized on 20 July 1992; additional information released and forwarded to State on 5 July 1994; the 5 July 1994 determina- tions were reaffirmed (sustained) in a 6 November 1995 letter to State. CU 348 was forwarded to State sanitized on 5 July 1994 with those determinations reaffirmed on 6 November 1995.
13-00000 2. Volume XI has already been published so any decisions made with respect to the JFK review will not influence the FRUS release. 3. Per conversations with Susan Weetman on 16 May 1997, Volume X is scheduled to be published in June 1997; all release decisions concerning the FRUS Vol. X documents are firm and cannot be changed. Therefore, any JFK review of these documents will not influence the FRUS release. Karen Galuska Attachments: As stated
