Thomas Graves Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Thanks to Bill Simpich for studying the documents available, it would appear that Nelson L. Raynock is Henry Hecksher. Hecksher’s name is scribbled in the top right of this document. Hecksher also used these pseudonyms: James D. Zaboth and Henry Boysen. CIA Pseudonyms [Carl E. Jenkins, the only other CIA officer involved in AMWORLD to my knowledge, used the pseudo James E. Beckoff] PHOTOS OF MANUEL ARTIME BUESA ALONE AND WITH MARTIN FERRER AND HENRY BOYSEN Artime and Hecksher from the above link. AMTHRILL's true identity is a mystery for another day. Zach Zach, As you probably know already, Dick Russell (in "The man Who Knew Too Much") says that Nagell's friend in Mexico City, Arthur Greenstein told him that the "Bob" he met at a party was tall, wore glasses, and looked to be in his mid-thirties in 1962. For comparison purposes, do we know how tall Aritime was? I assume this photo was taken around 1962-63? If so, how old does this "Henry Boysen" look to you? Is he wearing glasses?

Zach Robertson Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Hi Tommy, Artime was approximately 5'6". Hecksher is described elsewhere on this forum as "short and somewhat pudgy." He would have been over 50 years old in this photo. He definitely wasn't tall and in his mid 30s. I must admit, I have not read all of Russell's book. It can be very confusing and I do not know what Nagell is saying there exactly. That isn't the only thing he said that I can't quite follow.

Regardless of the fact that the guy in the photo couldn't possibly be Hecksher, can you tell whether or not the guy's wearing glasses?

Zach Robertson Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Tommy, The guy in the photo with Artime is Henry Hecksher. He was about 52 years old in 1963. Hecksher died in 1990 at the age of 79. The photo quality is very poor, but it does not look like he is wearing glasses. Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that's very interesting. Thanks! --Tommy Edited February 15, 2012 by Thomas Graves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
