Subject: Background on Mexico Station Support Assets
(Coverage of Soviet and Cuban Embassies)
1. UffilaIl)e coverage. From the time the Mexico Station was ooened in
ALl947      (-by Il- D6 j) until arrival of Win Scott as COS in 1956, Charles
Anderson III- (still in LA/HQ) had developed a support apparatus to
exploit leads from the SonietKmhagSsy. This umbrella type project (LIFEAT)
consisted of multi line phone taps, three photo sites, a mobile surveillance
team and a mail intercept operation,
a. Phone taps were placed by an.emploYee-of-thethhone company
Cho was handled by David WILSTED (pseudo).   The number of lines
tapped was limited by availability of a listening post nearby
(since the taps were not made in the main central) and English/
Spanish (Soviet, Polish, Czech, etc) transcribers. Generally
these agents (mostly Mexican or Mexican American) were related
(which the station at that time felt was good security in that
if they talked aboutshop, they would talk to each other.)
b.   hree photo sites were handled by Anderson with the help
of Harry Mahoney (retired, living .in Chicago) and TDY TSD
people checking the best type of camera, film, and concealment
devices. These had sub-cripts under LIFEAT (LIMITED, LILYRIC,
and LICALLA). LIMITED was a fixed site bang opposite across
the street from the front ate of the Soviet Embassy which had
both a vehicle and foot entrance. The Soviet gate was on the
NorthWest corner.bf their compound and LIMITED was diagonally
across a double barrelled street on the South
