MEMORAUM   FOR:  Director, Security Office

SUBJECT       :  Commendation of Mr. James O'Connell


     1.  I would like to take this opportunity to commend
Mr. James O'Connell for the excellent manner in which he served
WE Division on 6 May 1956.

     2.  As you know, the son of Mr. James R. Hunt, Jr., Chief
of Station, MWMA   was killed on 5/6 May in Walsenbury, Colorado,
in an automobile accident.  The CIA Cable secretariat was notified
by State and in turn notified Mr. M    i   iii     C/WE/3.  Mr. (:tiLjaI
contacted Mr. Hunt's mother on 6 May and offered to be of any assistance
whatsoever.

     3.  At 2000 hours, 6 May, Mrs. Hunt, Sr. telephoned Mr. in  ?L
to say the Hunts were arriving in New York at 0710 hours 7 May. She
asked if Mr. JWlJiiJtould  expedite their entry through Customs.
Mr. AZi     called the Security Night Duty Officer, who apparently
called Mr. James O'Connell. Within a half hour Mr. O'Connell telephoned
Mr.    E    to say that entry would be expedited and that two Agency
cars would ba available for transportation. Mr. O'Connell further
offered any other help possible. Mr. (VIiibwas   thus able to call
Ms  Hunt, Sr. before 2100 hours, 6 May.

     4.  This prompt action on the part of Mr. O'Connell has been
brought to the attention of the Director. It is requested that a copy
of this memorandum be placed in Mr. O'Connel's official personnel folder.
