               MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Cl Uaison

               FROM               : SR/CIAL

               SUBJECT            :  Questions Concerning Defectors
                                     Joseph J. DUTKANICZ  (201-289236) and
                                     Vladimir 0. SLOBODA  (201-287527)

                    1.  DUTKANICZs   Army  assignment at time of defection.

                          USAREUR  Case Summary -62-2   (copy attached) confirms
               DUTKANICZ's   assignment to.the 32ad Signal )attalion in Darmstadt.
               However,' his wife indicated that he had CIC connections. In an interview
               at the American Embassy Moscow  on S-December 1961 (cited in DBA-288,
               24 January 1962), she indicated that their trip behind the Iran Curtain. had
               been made possible because her husband worked for the CIC and was allowed
               to do things the ordinary 'GI could not do. There are also penciled no-
               tations in the 201 flie suggesting that his Army assignment may have included
               intelligence functions of some Idnd.

                    2.  Previous KGB connection of beth defectors.

                          Per USAREUR  Case  Summary  2-68-2, DUTKANICZ  himself
               told American Embassy officials in Mosco* that he had been approached by
               KGS  representatives in a bar near Darmstadt in 1958 and had accepted
               recruitment as a result of their threats and Inducements. He claimed to
               have liven them minimum casperation from then until his defection, although
               the Army coaidered it probable that ho had done more than he admitted. A
               further indication of his KGB involvement before defection is the fact that the
               special decree granting him Soviet citisenship was enacted three mothe before
               his arrival in the USSR; see Emb tel 851.
