Pseudonym: Wally, Captain
Moore then possibly started using "Gordon Campbell" as an alias. His main CIA pseudo that he used for memos was probably Frederick Inghurst. He may also have used the aliases of Irving Peggins and "Mr. Bishop" when he was not at JMWAVE. Rex was commanded by Alejandro Brooks and the Leda by his brother Gaspar Brooks: https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=124186&relPageId=17
Captain Wally brought the "CIA instructions" to their commander. https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=124186&relPageId=13&search=wally
Hank was CIA, gave orders to Clemente Inclan Werner/AMSIGH-2 and to the team as a whole. https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=124186&relPageId=23&search=wally
Hank was a trainer and needed an interpreterhttps://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=124186&relPageId=8&search=hank
John Tilton is mentioned on 10/26 as being in the communication loop on the action address - he may have been Wally, probably not a trainer and probably knew Spanish. Hank was a trainer who needed an interpreter. See https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=73298#relPageId=49&search=%22mr._wally%22 - Wallace Shanley was known as "Wally".
