KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992 27 January 1965 IZ .OR2ANDU_ FOR: Jim O'Connor, TSD/Security SUBJECT: Contact with Herman E. Kimsey - Jan Beck, TSD/GARB 1. As you requested at our meeting on 25 January, I have prepared this sumn'ary of my contact with Mr. Kimsey since he left the Agency in August, 1962. 2. My contact with K. has been via the telephone, except for a couple of occasions when I had lunch with him or he visited Chief, GRB in Central. Building. I cpnnot recall ever calling him, but his calls to me have been mostly to the office and only a few to my home. 3 With a few exceptions his reason for calling see-Ls to have been non-specific; he just wanted to chat. Often he would open the convers-tion wit le gambit Qf asking for someone's telephone extension, more than once for Thea all's e::tension, or for Dick Kuhns home address. Sometimes he would call rmy attention to something interesting he had read in the paper about some new technique, some mutual friend, etc. Occasionally he would seem to be fishing for infornation about old associates, mainly I r(Hall and Dick Kuhn: how they were doing and what they were doing nowadays, and so on. Since I usually avoided answering such questions directly, I cannot tell if he already knew about the person in question and wanted confirmation, or if he was fishing. The bulk of the converstions then consisted mainly of dialogue about his job plans, family, mutual friends outside the Agency, and so on. 4. Several calls were about the one instance when I was directly involved with him on a project. It pertained to a job opening which I had heard about and wanted to pass on to him. It was as a document examiner or a related job with the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office, Portland, Oregon. He seemed interested in pursuing the possibility, but in a recent conversation he had still not applied and did not seem interested. 5. The only other calls on a specific subject where those on the subject of the Anastasia story, early in 1964, and on the Polish colonel's claim, 22 January 1965. On the Anastasia subject he mentioned his involveient in the: case via Cleve Backster and gave me the general background as he saw it, including a certain intrigue involving Reds working for 'Life' nagazine and the Soviet and British intelligence services p obbly being in the background to protect their interests. -Exreudad from automati^ wagrd~lg aad 2*e .iaaltltt
