~ (OPERATION ALPHA 66) ·(L- -
Integrated Revolutionary Organization in
Cuba, along with the Communist Party of
Cuba and the other principal political
parties.
RENE VALDES stated on June 22, 1963, that he had
been visited at his residence by two local members of the
Second National Front of Escambray (SNFE) - Alpha 66.
These men said it was known by them that inquiries had been
made about VALDES in the past, supposedly because he was a
communist. VALDES said he visited Miami in December, 1962
anj met ANTONIO VECIANA, leader of A-66. VECIANA appointed
VALDES as General Delegate of A-66 in Los Angeles, and the
le ~ter of appointment bore no mention of SNFE. VALDES
developed an organization of 17 members just before the
meeting of May 19, 1963, at which VECIANA was to speak.
Instead, SARGEN came. VALDES had read of the merger of SNFE
and A-66, and added the name of SNFE to the window of the
headquarters. SARGEN criticized VALDES for placing A-66
in the forefront and relegating SNFE to a minor role, and
said A-66 was only a "front 11 for the SNFE. VALDES then wrote
to VECIANA and asked him if A-66 existed or was a front :for
the organization, and received a reply from VECIANA saying
it was desired that VALDES relinquish his position as Gen-
eral Delegate in favor of MANOLO MESA. VALDES learned from
TIRSO DEL JUNCO that VECIANA had split with almost the
entire membership of A-66 and had gone over to SNFE, taking
the name A-66 with him.
In September, 1963, SARGEN, as Organizational
Secretary of Second National Front of Escambray (SNFE)
sent a letter to ALFREDO RONDON at the Los Angeles head-
quarters of SNFE, A-66 and the Movimiento Revolucionario del
Pueblo (MRP). This letter consisted of instructions~~
how to conduct training of men for a specialized reserve
brigade in various types of guerrilla warfare.
ELOY GUTIERREZ MENOYO came to Los Ange les
October 11, 1963, and appeared at a public meeting of the
Los Angeles delegation o~ A-66. He announc ed that the organ-
ization would be in Cuba in less than six months.

once a pl e States Army in Korea,
said he had been tra1mng guerrillas at a camp located on an
18olated island in thO Reys, and had been arrested in December., 1;
I
1962 and charged with a violation or the Neutrality Act, but
that his case had been dismissed on the ground his activities
which were thought to constitute the violation were merely "part
or the tra.imng program." He said that the instructors at the
camp were mostly Americans and that the trainees were Cuban
ref'Ugees sent down by various organizations in Miami tor
training. He added that he intended to return soon to Florida
to cont inue his activities. When he remarked "Even 1n the event
I had (participated in any raids against Cuba) ••• and I'm
not saying I haven't," he pointed out that when the charges
'..-r against h1m had been dismissed, it had been stipulated that the
'' 4 case could be reopened.

\ anywhere inside the Umted States and commented that he did
not think the United States Government should interfere with
their efforts to keep after Fidel Castro in cooperation with
the "underground" i.n Cuba until Castro 1a killed. He aai.d that
be did not think 1t unwise to come back t'rom ra.1.da against Cuba
and give publicity to them since he thought that their ettorta
were necessary to keep the hopes ot the anti-Castro movement

alive. Be later said, however_. that the raida against Castro

When taken out of context, the above remark becomes
