Comments:

Deputy Director CIA. Testified before Warren Commission May 14, 1964. (CIA 30-9 warns all stations abroad, "...Although we have no reason to expect anything of a particular military nature, all hands should be on the quick alert at least for the next few days...") (CIA 377-731, 1.a. "It looks like the FBI report may even be released to the public. This would compromise our __________ operations in Mexico, because the Soviets would see that the FBI had advance information on the reason for Oswald's visit to the Soviet Embassy.") The foregoing message was sent from David Atlee Phillips to CIA Deputy Director Plans on Dec. 11, 1963. President Johnson gave Helms "a merciless chewing-out" in the presence of other Government officials. (MMF 1757) Testified before Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on 6/13/75 (MMF 1880-1888).

3. Use double-quotes to enclose phrases (consecutive words), e.g. "Jack Ruby".
4. Use "and" to find pages containing both word/phrase A and word/phrase B, e.g.: mccone and "maurice bishop".
5. Note that small words (the, by, on, etc.) are ignored.
6. Searches are not case-sensitive (e.g., KENNEDY is the same as kennedy).
