MEMORANDUM FOR: The Review Staff

VIA

SUBJECT

5 SEP 1975

Senate Seloct Comnittee Request

(Charles Ford)

1.

Reference is made to a 28 August 1975 memorandum

from the Review Staff (75/2723), which contains a request

from Mr. Mike Madigan, Senate Select Conmittee Staff, for

infornation concerning the possible use by the Agency of

one Charles Ford to establish contacts with the underworld

for possible use against Fidel Castro. Referenced request

indicated that Charles Ford was an Agency officer, who was

utilizing the name

"Rocky Siscalini."

2.

A revion of

closed both an overt and covert file on one Charles D. Ford

•(SP

#38 497), a current Agency employee serving with the

Office of Training/Deputy Directorate for Administration.

Cited files disclosed that circa 1962-1963, Charles D. Ford

was issued official alias documentation under the name

"Charles D. Fiscalini."

3.

Charles D. Ford has been an Agency staff employee

since 1952.

The Office of Security files relating to MI. Ford

do not contain any information which would indicate he had

been used to contact underworld figures for possible use

against Fidel Castro. However, in November 1961 Mr. Ford was

assigned to the Deputy Directorate for Operations, Western

Hemisphere Division as an Operations Officer. A memorandum

contained in his files, dated 30 March 1962, indicates that

Mr. Ford was issued alias documentation under the name of

"Charles D. Fiscalini." Cited memorandum further indicates

that Mr. Ford was then assigned to "Task Force W," and was

to travel to New York on 31 March 1962 to meet with an un-

identified attorney who had contacted Mr. Robert Kennedy, the

then Attorney General, concerning assistance for Cuban prisoners.

Hr. Ford's files reflect that he was reissued this alias docu-

mentation in February 1963, to be utilized "in the Continental

U.S. for operational purposes in pursuit of the mission of the

Special Affairs Staff." On 10 July 1963, cited alias documen-

tation was returned to Headquarters, noting that Mi. Ford was

being reassigned within the Agency and would no longer require

the use of the alias documentation.

4.

As stated, Mr. Ford's Office of Security files contain

no information concerning the specific nature of his duties on

behalf of the western Hemisphere Division, Task force w, or the

Special Affairs Staff.

Attached hereto are copies of the perti-

nent menoranda referred to herein, which are dated during the

1961-1963 period. These documents have been sanitized in

accordance with established procedure.

Prior to the release

of these documents to the Senate Select Committee, it is recom-

mended that the entire package be coordinated with the Deputy

Diractor for Operations.
