MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR, CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE

SUBJECT: Cuba, Operation Mongoose.

In the interest of security and orderly procedure, it is

suggested that files in CLA pertaining to Operation Mongoose be

transferred to the officer currently responsible for your opera-

tions covering Cuba.

The Chairman, Special Group (5412/2), concurs in this

proposal. The sensitivity of material as it involves delibera-

tions of the Special Group is especially noted. My own files are

being turned over to the custodian of Special Group records, Mr.

Parrott, for reference as may be appropriate.

As Mongoose is phased out, my own warm appreciation

will always igmain for your fine support and the cooperation of

your staff in this difficult task. I particularly wish to pass along

my commendation to Mr. Helms, MI. Harvey, Mr. Cheever,

their staffs, and CIA's field personnel.
