Join this thread to provide and discuss FBI cryptonyms!

[Bill Simpich]

More FBI cryptonyms - these could also be called "Codenames" or "Government Assets, Sources, and Informants"

There needs to be a demand for the names of all these sources to be immediately released.

Confidential Informant R-1:  William Pawley's recording device.   This second memo affirms it.

MM 607-C (RAC): Here is an item for Willie Somersett (note the altered spelling) as MM-607-C (RAC)

MM 635-S:  Juan Fernandez de Castro is MM 635-S.  In 1960, a member of the "Confidential Police of Cuba".

MM 761-S:  Francisco Varona/AMCONCERT-1.

On the jeweler MM 761-S - this memo shows that Cubela's "desire to defect was made known by MM 761-S on June, 1962.  Thereafter, CIA apparently made contact with Cubela in Europe through the jeweler Carlos Tepedino, 9819-64th Avenue, Rego Park, Queens, N.Y., a Cuban exile and long-time friend of MM 761-S, who frequently travels in Europe.  MM 761-S advised that on July 15, 1964, he was visited by Carlos Tepedino, at which time he confided certain information concerning Cubela."

 

The friend of Tepedino referenced above as MM 761-S fits nicely with AMCONCERT-1, also known as Francisco Wilfredo Varona (no relative to Tony Varona) aka "Paco".   This led to Bill Harvey's recruitment of Rolando Cubela.

 

Note that Varona's case officer from November 1960-August 1962 was Tony Sforza.  Sforza knew Tepedino all too well - he hid out in the Tepedino family home for several months after the Bay of Pigs, as Newman's books chronicle at length.

 

MM-897-PC:  Jose Aleman was this FBI informant.  He was informing on Santos Trafficante and Herminio Diaz Garcia (named by Tony Cuesta as a JFK assassin).

 

MM-1337-S:  Oscar Angulo was MM 1337-S, Miami's top informant in the CORU.

It looks like his development as a PSI began in 1968 or so.

MM-1337-S aka Oscar Angulo - also seen here  in this 1976 memo

Angulo was working on bombs with Orlando Bosch back in 1968. and in the 70s as well.

 

For more...This linked memo provides many of these - some relevant to the JFK case.

Bill,

I had thought this doc was interesting. Here on 11/26/63 we have Varona (MM-761-S) mentioning Herminio Diaz in reference to the JFK assassination. https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=193177#relPageId=2

The doc also references a Manolo Rodriguez. Could possibly be Manuel Rodriguez Orcarberro of the Dallas SFNE/Alpha-66.

Isn't the only serious question here whether CIA accountant James Wilcott was correct when he told HSCA staffers that "Lee Harvey Oswald's" CIA cryptonym was RX-ZIM?

Is anything else remotely that important?

Oh good lord. Not this again. Seriously? We literally had this same discussion three years ago. So I guess I'll repeat that Tracy has already offered a perfectly plausible and logical alternative to Wilcott’s completely unsubstantiated claims:

Let’s not scrap on this thread?  Start your own and fight over there.  If you’ve got new codenames or cryptonyms from the FBI - not the CIA, MFF has that - please share them.

Did you know that James Angleton can be found in FBI documents as “Bureau Informant 100”?
