Approved For Release 2008/05/02 : CIA-RDP92BOl090R002700030126-6 SECRET NRO REVIEW COMPLETED USIB-D-41. 14/65 (COMOR-D-24/81) 9 September 1.963 UNITED STATES INTELLIGENCE BOARD MEMORANDUM FOR UNITED STATES INTELLIGENCE BOARD SUBJECT: Recommended Addition of Beach Areas to Low- Level Reconnaissance Targets in Cuba 1. The USIB on 25 July 1963 (See USIB-D-41. 14/57; COMOR-D-24/73) approved high priority targets for low-level reconnaissance in Cuba. 3. The CIA operational planners have assured COMOR that this type of coverage cannot be met by any other source known to it. COMOR, in exploring ways to meet this need by aerial photography, has been advised and from its examination of sample photography has concluded that these needs could not be met by any aerial reconnaissance which would not overfly the territorial waters claimed by Cuba. Furthermore, it is noted that, in-past low-level overflight of Cuba, the areas indicated on the map were not covered because the objectives of these flights were inland. needed on the beach area can only be obtained by photographic reconnaissance within the 3-mile limit.
