Hi Matthew-

   I would really appreciate the article. I was with 1st RSM 1952-1954.
   I am not familiar with "intelligence and National Security" journal but am 
a long time subscriber to "Cryptologia" a quarterly journal published by the 
Department of Mathematical Sciences, United States Military Academy. 
   Among other things I am trying to verify a story that a couple of 1st RSM 
operatives parashooted into a reservoir under cover of night and helped 
rescue a bunch of Marines. I don't know the time frame. I think the story is 
true but I have never seen it confirmed. If so it would be an interesting 
story, one of the many that has never been told :-). One of the guys I knew 
and he was named Asa and was a southerner.
   Thanks.

Ron
