A dispatch in July of 1962 stated that "AMBARB-23 is scheduled to join AMBARB-22, and two other candidates are scheduled to go to Peru, now that AMBARB-19 has been withdrawn."

A dispatch in August, 1962, stated that "in Peru AMBARB-22 works closely with the Lima Station."

The AMSPELL (DRE) Progress Report in October, 1962, lists Rolando Fernandez Corredera as being on its international section payroll month for October 1961 (paid $300.00 during that month). Peru was the nation were the payment to Rolando Fernandez Corredera was assigned.

A CRC Admin/Budget/Finance report for August, 1968, mentioned that Rolando Fernandez Corredera received a check for $150.00. A Raul Fernandez Corredera received a check for $200.00. It is likely that they were related.
