George W. Anderson


Recommended Posts

I am really interested in knowing more about the possible connection between George W. Anderson and this:

Quote

In the FBI Memorandum dated 22nd June 1962, Alexander Irwin Rorke claimed that their (Rorke and Sturgis) contact man was "Commander Anderson of the United States Navy, who is assigned to CIA overt office in New York". This claim is supported by a declassified CIA memo's from Anderson to Robert Trumbull Crowley, Robert Trumbull Crowley, Assistant Deputy Director of Clandestine Operations of the CIA, on 9th January 1961: "Alex Rorke phoned from Miami to report that personnel in Varona group and other groups in process joining Dr. Bosch - Commander (of) Diego Party. According (to) Rorke, Frank Fiorini has been power behind scene."

Does anyone know anything about "Commander Anderson"

Alexander Irwin Rorke claims that his contact was “Commander Anderson of the United States Navy, who is assigned to CIA covert office in New York”. His name also appears on a declassified document that has been sent from Anderson’s CIA office in New York to Robert Trumbull Crowley. It is a report of an interview with Frank Fiorini that had taken place on 3rd March, 1961. The document includes details of Fiorini’s plans to enter Cuba and organize resistance to Castro. At the end of the interview Anderson “requested Fiorini write up concept of this operation covering logistics requirements, personnel required, intelligence set up, etc.”

The document refers to Crowley being a member of CD/OO/Support Branch. I have been sent a document dated 3rd December, 1993, that shows that Dr. John M. Newman was very interested in the identity of Anderson. In a letter written to the CIA, Newman attached a CIA document number 287-690, dated 3rd December 1963. It is a memo from "Birch D. O'Neal, Chief, CI/SIG, Subject: Lee Harvey Oswald". On the upper right hand corner is a handwritten comment: "Andy Anderson OO on Oswald". He then quotes from an interview that the HSCA carried out with Donald Deneselya, a CIA employee in the Contacts Division in 1962, who read Anderson's debrief of Oswald. Newman recommends that the CIA should find all surviving members of CD/OO/Support Branch.

Thanks in advance
