MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
The Director met at East Building at 0730 with the DDCI.
Mr. Sheldon, Mr. I I and Mr. Lundahl.
1. Mr. Lundahl showed pictures of and discussed the tank and
vehicle deployment in the area of Havana. Discussion followed the
lines of Memorandum on Cuba of this date which was approved by the
Director for subsequent release to the Executive Committee, NSC.
Mr. McCone sent Mr. Lundahl to the White House to report with the
pictures to Mr. Bundy. Mr. Mc Cone said he would talk to Salinger
about leaking this information to the press since he felt that this was
part of a campaign by the Cubans who would point out at the time of
the parade that there were no Soviet forces in Cuba -- that these were
all Cubans. In this connection, Mr. McCone noted with interest that the
Soviet combat units were still in place.
2. Mr. Sheldon reported that the message on had been
transmitted to Mr. Bobby Kennedy. He did not have time of delivery.
(Subsequently determined that message left this Headquarters around
1100 a. m. and was received y in Brazil about 1600.
Mr. Sheldon is asking to find out why it took so
long. )
3. Mr. McCone stated that Senator Hickenlooper had returned
and that he had seen Nasir, whom he saw every time he went to the
Middle East. Mr. McCone said we should debrief Senator Hickenlooper
and that he would make the arrangements.
4. The Director was briefed on the Yemen, the Dominican Republic,
the strike in Peru, Soviet postponement of space shot and possible failure
of Soviet nuclear air drop, all as contained in the Check List of this
date.
