104-10414-10124: MEXICO CITY STATION HISTORY

"A Cuban Refugee Reception and Orientation Center (LICOMET) was also run by an American contract agent. This center screened refugees (about 350 per week during 1964 and 1965) for possible operational leads, and debriefed those with information of intelligence value." At p. 87: "LICOMET-1 (201-285165) was the titular head of the unit and principal agent for the project from 1964 until 1968 when he obtained full-time employment with a private firm and was replaced in the LICOMET operation by LICOMET-2 (201-327270)..."
