Furthermore, LIONION-L's log of all persons entering and leaving LIRING has been most useful, as has been the log of all vehicles and their licenses. | LIONION-1l's attention — to detail, organization, and accuracy has been exemplary. | During this perlod he identified three new employees.

This curtailment of print production (duplicative for the most part) should not materially affect the operation's coverage. LIONION-1] was apprehensive about this move but i realizés that it provides him with more responsibility and discretion re “blowups" within broad guidelines dictated by the Station. The Station anticipates no problem with this’ change. . — . 4.

PROJECT BACKGROUND AND REPORTING ‘Project LIONION is a long-term operational support project designe ',to provide. fixed photographic, technical, and physical surveillance of the PBRUMEN Embassy and Consulate tn Mexico City. A corollary. ' objective is to provide for a mechanism which can fulfill various | - miscellaneous PBRUMEN support type requirements, The LIONION base- house, which serves as the photopraphic base, an L/P and provides a vadio-dispatching base for the LULEMBRACE surveillance team, continues to be manned by LIONION-1 and LIONION~2, The Jast regularly scheduled LIONION progress report, covering the period 1 Aprii through 30 June 1967, was forwarded in reference, . 2. AGENT CONTACT AND PERFORMANCE . 4 During the period under review, LIONION-1 was seen 18 times and LIONION~2 on four occasions in regular operational meetings. Meetings were held in the LIONION safehouse, in the Case Officer's home after dark, in restaurants or in moving vehicles after street-corner pick- “ups. Other than the intentional rotation of meeting sites and tines, no changes were made in the LIONION comminications systems, As noted in reference, LIONION-1 was hospitalized for emergency surgery to treat a perforated ulcer on 27 Juno. LIONION-1 did not _¥ecover sufficiently to provide fulltime coverage until mid-July, a fact, given his conscientious nature, lowered his morale slightliv.: However, after returning to fulltime work and receiving assurances —~ from the Case Officer, LIONION~1 perked-up considerably, Since that time, LIONION-1 has performed in the exemplary manner which the Sta- . tion has come to expect of him. Other than cited above, thore have been no agent handling, coatrol,-or morale problems during the report- ing period, . , Sear (CONTI NUED) Erciated trod arkesatic re f ; “ Distribution: come 1 OS Pony _ Qi Orig &/1.~ C/WHD [ei ORY SO fee > I - C/WH/COG So gp ee ~ eee ae "| Oss RERRENCE TO DUPATCH SYMBOL AND NUMBER Gate HMMA -33320 : _ 19 October 1967 | cussion HGS ALE RUMBEE ~ SECRET 50-G-122/3
