                                                                                 7 April 1995

              MEMORANDUM FOR: J. Barry Harrelson  @  DA

              FROM:
                                  IMS/ SI-LGS
              SUBJECT:         Response to   ARRB  Questions / Requests

              REFERENCE:       Memo dtd 6 March 1995 to   Ellie Neiman re ARRB Initial Review of Oswald
                                  201 File

                     1. In response to ARRB the DO has the following answers and /or comments  to the
              specific questions raised by Mr. Gunn during his review of the OSWALD 201 file.

                            a. RYBAT-  The sensitivity indicator RYBAT is used on correspondence
              whenever,  in the judgment of the originator and releasing officer, the correspondence
              concerns  sensitive operational or administrative matters. When used RYBAT will appear
              on the slug line along with other pertinent action indicators or cryptonyms to ensure the
              protection of sensitive text information.

                            b. CI/SIG - the I In SIG stands for  investigations  and appears in the
              Birch O'Neal testimony and also in CSI No. 70-1 dtd 2 March 1955 [ a copy attached
              herewith] ; this particular document was released in full in Reel 48 folder 18 of the JFK
              microfilm holdings.

                            c. VR - Indicates that a vital records copy of the cable message was
              provided to the cable secretariat archives for its use in the necessary microfilming of the
              message  at a later date - this automatic dissemination to VR ensures a good microfilm
              image  copy for records storage.


                            d. D-200-5-41  - The D  indicates a processing code used by the records
              analyst to place a cross referenced copy of the same document into a particular file other
              tharn the main file . The file number 200-5-41 is the official GPFLOOR file\-all documents
              orighafy, assigned to tiis, file have been reclassified to other subject files . The GPFLOOR
              file was  loi  out with the last document filed dated 26 August 1968 [see JFK Reel 48
              folder 29 for a listing of documents processed from this file].

                            e. SLUG  LINE - The crypts released elsewhere in the text of a message are
              always  protected in the slug line along with other indicators as a method to preclude
              reconstitution of DO files; for the release of the crypts in the slug line could build
              sufficient information to reconstruct sensitive operational information the DO is trying to
              protect.

                            f. DOlWH  Organizational Chart - [see attached CSI No 70-1 dtd 27 May
               1955 a~d updates written in from cable chrono information 1- the second attachment dtd 5
               July 1978 authored by the CIA History Staff answers the original request for this
               information.

                            g. HRG Review  Guidelines - On 15 March the DO provided HRG  with a green
                                                                                     DA

                                                   CONFIDENTIAL
