Ryan Joseph R. MEROLA HH 25826. 8 January 1974 - 1. On 10 January 1974 the WH/2/GS desk received the referenced memorandum from the Domestic Collection Division indicating the Miami field office had been in contact with one Joseph R. NEROLA. HEROLA had just returned from a business . trip to El Salvador; and he reported that a friend of his had identified a Mr. Gremillion in the Political Section of the American Embassy- in San Salvador as a suspect CIA representative. Headquarters traces on Joseph R. MEROLA indicated that on several occasions in the past MEROLA had claimed that he was a CIA agent. The Chief of Station. the Mr. Gremillion referred to above, was recently questioned retarding any Embassy contact with MEROLA whil, the latter was in San Salvador. The COS stated that both within the Embassy community and at social functions MEROLA had frequently referred to his contact with the CIA, past and present. He also volunteered this infor- motion to a former Station contact. 2. Tn light of the above. it would appear that MEROLA had taken advantage of his agency contacts in an inappropriate manner to the potential embarrassment of the San Salvador -- Station. We would, accordingly, appreciate that this be given due consideration in your assessment of the advantage of your continued contact with hi.- David L.
