OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR
Action Memorandum No.. A-197
Date 14 March 1963
? Deputy Director/Research
SUBJECT : Coverage of Soviet Military Camps in Cuba
1. Immediately upon the successful completion of the Donovan
mission to Cuba and when and if he returns with the American prisoners, the
Agency should immediately ask for a meeting of the Special Group in order to
obtain permission for low-level coverage of the suspected sites in Cuba that
may be occupied by Soviet military personnel. The Director has indicated
this should be a matter of the highest priority for the Agency and that we
should aggressively pursue the obtaining of hard facts on the status of Soviet
personnel in Cuba in order to satisfy the demands of highest authority.
20 Please keep this office advised of developments.
