He was working with Luis Balbuena in Operation Patty at Guantanamo, another Navy contact planning to kill Fidel who worked with ONI's Hal Feeney and Jack Modesette. In July 1961, Gordon reported Gonzales' activity - which resulted in his placement in a psychiatric ward until October 1961. He saw a newspaper report on Gonzales being arrested inside Cuba in approximately 1966.
