This Central Intelligence Agency file, released in 2025, collects 1968 cable traffic and dispatches between CIA headquarters' Western Hemisphere Division and the JMWAVE station about AMBUD dependency payments to families of Bay of Pigs brigade members. It covers closing trust accounts held by the agent AMTIKI-1, settling the account of a dead brigade member's mother, and handing case administration to MHMUTUAL. It also contains 1960 financial reports of the Democratic Revolutionary Front. The file has no UFO content.

Read from the scan by GLM-OCR; expect the odd misread word.

DISPATCH
CLASSIFICATION SECRET
TO Chief of Station, JMWAVE
INFO
FROM Chief, Western Hemisphere Division
SUBJECT TYPIC/Operational/AMBUD
C Request for Additional Information on Two AMBUD Dependency Cases
ACTION REQUIRED REFERENCES Action Required: See Paragraph 1
1. It is requested that Raymond K. PANUSES recheck the file of Miguel Los Santos DELGADO Martinez (Case No. 97) in an effort to determine the cause and actual date of his death. Headquarters file does not reflect this information nor the reason why his dependents are paid under the AMBUD program. In those few cases of former active assets whose dependents are paid by AMTIKI, the exact date and circumstance of death is necessary for documentation.
2. It is also requested that AMTIKI be queried regarding certain vital documents which should be in the file of Benito BLANCO Cruz (Case No. 3). A copy of a letter from the widow, dated 11 January 1962, indicated that her marriage certificate and the birth certificates of her children were enclosed with the letter. It is possible, but unlikely, these documents were overlooked when the file was recently reviewed. In any event, the work check sheet used by the documentation team indicates these documents were missing from the file.
