The Informer

It's the next day before any hint of el sol, Captain Villapudua and his team
start their mission. Two fast, unmarked choppers maneuver just above the
green jungle forest and cross over the border into Brazil.

In a short while, the "A" team prepared to repel from their hovering
aircraft. Dark figures slither down ropes draped upon the jungle's canopy
below.

The canopy is made up of mainly of organic detritus and overgrowth, and in
the upper Amazon regions, it can become several feet thick and very dense.
After cutting trough the canopy, the team remains in the tree tops over 100'
feet above the ground. They quietly wait and listen to their surrounds.
After a couple of hours, the captain orders the team to complete their
descent.

Once on the floor, they almost immediately push to their designated 6
coordinate control point. It takes them several more hours. After arriving,
the captain checks time and his maps to verify position, then orders his xo
to have the team check their equipment. The LT automatically secures the
position. They have difficult tasks of waiting, and if or when needed, of
reacting.

The mentor's meeting was scheduled for the 2000 to 2200 timeframe.

One individual, Staff Sgt. Manny R. began a more difficult task.

While the "A" team undertook their advanced heavy weapons training in North
Carolina, Sgt. Manny R. volunteered above and beyond the call of duty. The
team was selected to be introduced to a highly controversial weapon. There
was much speculation, at the time, about its existence. It was a small
thermonuclear device that was designed to be carried into the battlefield by
rucksack. The carrier would either take the bomb to its intended target and
fire it in true Hazbulah fashion, or if lucky, infiltrate by stealth and
plant the device for later detonation.

Luckily for Sgt. Manny R. the latter option was chosen. He proceeded to plant
the device and had a successful rendezvous with his unit.

From Aster's questions, although a mission was approved, I should point out
that this mission was not the one reviewed by the 40 Committee. This
committee was charged with overseeing the CIA's high-risk covert-action
operations. It had various members such as Dir. of Intelligence,
Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, Deputy Sec. of Defense,
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Richard Helms, and other bureaucrats
that had close ties to the President.

But, understand also, Helms was not completely advised by the ufo working
group of what the mission was really all about (translated, he was never
told that nuclear weapons were involved. But I might add his signature
appeared on all the authorizing documents.). Is anybody saying, huh? Well,
McCone was the brains not Helms. McCone knew Helms wanted to control the
CIA. The Director is the last person in the world that would be able to do
that, if anybody could. As Helms was sitting in the directors chair.>),
Helms asked his staff to find out just how many university personnel were
under secret contract to the CIA (CIA was getting allot of newspaper pressure
at the time). After a short period, a senior officer reported they could not
find out the answer. Also, he was also rebuffed when he tried to find out
the exact number of planes are flown by airlines owned by the CIA (you know
like Air America or Air Asia). He did not understand that he was asking
information about what the CIA calls "proprietary."

The proprieties conduct CIA business but handle their own financial affairs
with very little oversight from the CIA HQ. This is an unwritten rule within
the intelligence community - violated by no one.
Only when a proprietary is in need of "funds" doest it request agency money.
The ufo working group in essence uses the CIA but is not exactly the CIA.

After mentor's group left from it's disembarkation point, a certain figure
of Latin American type also left the encampment. He apparently had loyalties
with a leftist Brazilian radical group. This group unfortunately was aware
of Jacabo and Rigoberta. This individual knew nothing about the mission
specifics. This informer was never specifically identified and is believed
to be living in Cuba.
