104-10332-10018 JFK Assassination Records Archives 1 (12/03/1993)

handle is hein.jfk/jfkarch79264 and id is 1 raw text is: '104-10332-10018 2022 RELEASE UNDER THE PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992 j/ December 3, 1993 Memorandum for the Director, Center for Studies in Intelligence, Central Intelligence Agency Attn: Mr. John Pereira FAX: 703-243-8343 Subject: CIA Files on Lee Harvey Oswald This is to acknowledge my telecon yesterday with Dave Gries and with John Pereira re issue of whether Oswald was ever debriefed by the Agency, and to respond to John's request for documents which may having bearing r 5this issue. First, a point of order. It is my belief and the belief of the Agency personnel with whom Ihave discussed this matter, that your files should not contain the infamous debrief. It strains credibility that the Agency would purposely persist in saying there was no debrief when in fact it had a copy of it somewhere in its extensive - if sometimes sloppy -- records system. It would have been found by 1993. The issue is not whether you have it now; rather it is whether it occurred in the past and was destroyed. We can all talk, theorize and argue over what it might mean later. For now the task at hand is simply to take all necessary steps to find out. I urge extreme caution in stating flatly that there was no debrief until such steps have been thoroughly exhausted. I was surprised to find out after the FRONTLINE documentary aired, for example, that therc will be some new pieces on this subject in the not too distant future. I attach a copy of CIA document number 435-173A, attachment, memo dated 25 November 1963, by a T.B.C., whom I believe might be one Mr. Tom Comier; possibly a former head of SR6 Branch, Soviet Russia Division, at the time Lee Harvey Oswald returned to the US in the Summer of 1962. T.B.C. stated he discussed the laying on of interviews with Oswald, either while he was en route or after his arrival. Because T.B.C. made a typographical error when he typed 1960 instead of 1962, the IISCA foolishly dismissed the veracity of this entire document. rF~..I ~-V2~-' F~T '*CrT rfl 2~CT
