"LICOMET-1 (201-285165) was the titular head of the unit and principal agent for the project from 1964 to 1968...The project staff consisted of refugees rather than permanent residents. These refugees were, for the most part, in Mexico waiting to go to the United States. No one could predict the processing time for US visas. As a result, it was impossible to plan for personnel changes."

104-10180-10060: CIA FILE ON RAY, MANUEL.
01/21/69: Memorandum from Nancye Gratz to C/WH/COG: Subject: Donn Munson, Author of SAGA Article, and Juan Erquiaga, Subject of Article: "1. Donn Hale Munson, born 1905, resident of Los Angles, approached LICOMET/1 in 1964 claiming he represented a large group of Cuban exiles in the Los Angeles area. Munson asked LICOMET/1 about the location of training camps, etc. LICOMET/1 reported the discussion to Station Mexico City and was instructed to avoid Munson. Donn Hale Munson is probably identical with the Donn Munson who authored the Saga article. There are no additional identifiable traces on Munson. 2. There are numerous traces on Juan Erquiaga Aizcorbe, the owner of the weapons plant named in the Saga article. The FBI also reported Erquiaga was involved in the sale of arms to Cuban mercenaries in 1965. Although RI was unable to locate the report, it was classified to Manolo Ray's 201 file. This would tend to support the Saga claims that any weapons supplied by Erquiaga's firm went to the JURE crowd, not to any Agency supported group."
