FROM: mas V. Madigan
IMS/ SG/HIC,
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. C/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.

analyst to place a cross referenced copy of the same document into a particular file other
than the. main file . The file number 200-5-41 is the official GPFLOOR filed-all documents

file was ilog 64 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. DO/WH Organizational Chart - [see attached CSI No 70-1 dtd 27 May
1955 and 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
