MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Intelligence
FROM: Executive Assistant to the DDCI
At today's lunch with the Secretary of State, the DDCI learned that
Deputy Secretary of State Dam will be leaving for Lima, La Paz, and
Buenos Aires on 1 November. John promised that we would provide him any
papers on the general situation in each area and an assessment of any
threat to the government at that time. I realize State may have tasked
your people separately through other channels and don't want to double
task,. but the DDCI would like to make sure that this information is
provided to Dam's office. Please check with them to see when they would
need it and let Stu know so that the DCI can mention it at the next State
lunch.
