Re: CIA Discloses Korean Spy Records

["Young Kim" <y_s_k@worldnet.att.net>]

I thought you two guys (Joe and Mike) were Agency insiders <g>

I understand Hans Tofte kept some documents (50-51 CIA in Korea) when he
left Korea.  Who has the Tofte files now?  Did the Agency take them back?

I well understand the situation. :-)

Yes, I'm extremely familiar with FOIA. Not to mention being extremely
frustrated with the low priority with which almost all of out federal level
agencies assign to it. :-(  It has taken me years to have simple innocuous
documents declassified.

Hah! I beat you too it. I'm anxiously awaiting its arrival (along with $150
of other books I ordered). We members of the "Starving Authors of the World"
have to stick together. ;-)
