But its nice to have the fact confirmed that they had a large office down in MC.
The FBI was tasked with ALL western Hemisphere intelligence collection and analysis with a caveat - the FBI's SIS had to be sure not to tread on the Military Intelligence Units already in these areas. (ONI & MID - the two oldest intelligence agencies in the US).
With regards to Mexico City, the FBI had developed an asset not written about in any work I could find on the Evidence for Oswald taking that Mexico trip. Only by digging thru the 1500+ WCD page references which mention Mexico
In my Mexico work at CTKA I explain who this person was and how each and every item of the "Oswald was in Mexico" evidence passed thru his hands before making its way to the FBI.
It was this man who enabled the FBI to make a semi-convincing case that Ozzie had gone to and come back from Mexico with things like the FM-8's, FM-5's, FM-11, tourist Visa, bus tickets, hotel registry and more.
I was truly surprised that so many authors had overlooked this man in their dealing with the Mexico evidence. I think it's because so many focus on the 27th thru the 3rd rather than what I did with the Evidence needed to get him there and back as well as actually BE in Mexico during that time.
"Pres[B]identFranklin D. Roosevelt officially vested the FBI with responsibility forforeign-intelligence work in the Western Hemisphere on 24 June 1940. Withindays, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had established the administrative skeletonfor a foreign-intelligence entity within the FBI and had named it the FBISpecial Intelligence Service"
