SH: Well, Mongoose itself became... it was a government-wide
               operation and people had to be specially cleared for it in each of the
               agencies. There were special Mongoose units in effect created and
               CIA was called Task Force W. that was Bill Harvey... the W was
               Bill Harvey's choice, but it was a task force. and people who were
               cleared for Mongoose knew about it. It's hard to keep quiet when
               you have a number of people, fifty, sixty or a hundred people
               running around collecting information and talking to people about
               doing more about Cuba all around the world. you don't keep it very
               quiand everybody knows you've got something going on and it
               doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out what is actually
               happening. You don't know the details, but you sure know
               something's up. And, for example, when Bill Harvey came aboard,
               we sent a world-wide message to all of our stations and bases
               around the world telling 'em that as far as this government was
               concerned, and this President, that Cuba was number one priority,
               nothing else mattered. And that's what we told everybody. And it
               doesn't take long for everybody to suddenly realize they've got
               another Bay of Pigs or something on the way and so from the point
               of view of the opposition, the Soviets and Cuba, they must have
               heard about it too. They had good enough penetrations around the
               world, you can't keep this thing very quiet.
