On 18 October 1967, Jerry Gabriel, DDS&T/OSP/SO, telephoned the writer to advise that a former emloyee, the Subject, had been in touch with him con- cerning whether or not he could write an article on Che Guevera, the Cuban Insurgent. Crozier apparently wanted to know if it were permissible for him to state that he was employed by the Agency at the time he was travelling with Guevera and had taken a number of pictures of the Cuban. Gabriel stated that Crozier was still working for the Post Office Department as a Postal Inspector. 2.
