104-10234-10439: WITHHELD

7/24/64 note from WH/SA/SO/B3 Grace Roberts to Mr. Armstrong, EOB (External Operations Branch): Subject: Angel Luis Fernandez Ruiz - "El Ingles": "El Ingles' name came up in connection with Trasancos/UNSNAFU-9...WHIP/Carlos Tepedino said that 'El Ingles' was a friend of AMLASH-1, and that the latter had stayed with El Ingles for 4-5 days when he was in Paris circa June 1963. He added that he was a nice man, but one 'full of complexes'. Queried, he explained that he meant personal complexes, nothing bad, but that he was not a serene person...The above may help to explain some of the erratic LCFLUTTER reactions. In addition, due to Trasancos' talkativeness, it may be possible that El Ingles knows something of AMLASH's plans, and may fear to be asked about this subject."
