HSCA document on Oswald in Mexico - Previously released in part. Looking on the MFF site there were a few redactions on the previous one there so adding this one here in case it is of interest

https://www.archives.gov/files/research/jfk/releases/180-10142-10302.pdf

Also this one which contains some of the same pages but is shorter

https://www.archives.gov/files/research/jfk/releases/180-10142-10301.pdf

Report on Elena Garro de Paz - Again released previously but this one is less redacted although still has some redactions

John McCone memorandum for LBJ redacts long paragraph discussing a "very sensitive effective operation working in Mexico City... which involved telephone surveillance and was being done in a most careful manner with his knowledge and with the assistance of a few of his trusted officials."

Fat redaction in this minutes of meeting of the Special Group, August 1962. Colonel Steakley is present for the stuff they don't want us to know about.

Big Rockefeller report, previously withheld in full, on Dominican Republic, Trujilo etc. Only thing redacted is who sent it, and a small crypt on top of page 2.

Same report pops top again. Stuff redacted from above file is back in and readable. Some new stuff is redacted, and the new stuff redacted as (as far as I can tell) stuff that you can read in the first document.

Interesting, previously withheld report on MK-NAOMI, CIA poisoning operations. Some stuff redacted, but not all.

Big long list of crypts and pseudonyms, with lots of redactions, suggestive details. The Walter C. Wicker name for a Mr E.H. Hunt was compromised in December 1960. You just know that page 1 was full of stuff John Newman could have used for his book. Can we take the guy from the archives who scanned it out for drinks and get him drunk, ask him if he remembers a few?

File review of Ricardo Morales Navarette. "Indicates Morales of interest to FBI, BNDD and CIA simultaneously. Morales said he was recently in contact with the "Chief of the Latin American Desk" at the CIA and his last name was the same as Morales." Referring to David?

Approvals on project passing between folks like William Harvey and Clare Booth Luce in July 1963. Some redactions.

Another one that seems to deal with John E Byrne and various documents and some newspaper clippings about the arrangements for the Texas trip. Also includes a written version of his recollections from December 1963. Previously withheld in full.

Hi Paul….I’m not familiar with who WIROTH-1 is no….I have seen QJ/WIN associated with WIROGUE but not WIROTH-1

Discussion of QJ/WIN and WIROGUE in this one about assassinations including the Congo. 

As with many of these though appears to be incomplete as the number of pages in the PDF is much lower than the number of pages quoted on the front sheet. The same thing occurs in many of the testimonies released as well.

These are frustrating as well - Diplomatic Summary 4th December 1963, Critical appraisal of President Johnson 22nd November 1963 from Washington to Brussels, CIA Intelligence Report and another one from 26th November 1963. All listed as having been previously withheld in full and they might as well still be as they are all blanked out !

Lots of FBI stuff.  Didn’t see any CIA.

Thats ok. I don't think the focus should be so strongly (or merely I should say) on the CIA. Its been that way for over 50 years. I'd like to see more NSA, Army Intelligence, etc. files personally.
