NODULE X7 OSWALD IN MINSK AND THE U2 DUMP: JANUARY ...

The IRD (Information Research Development) arm of British Intelligence used Media
and 'Academic' fronts, often with the CIA, such as Encounter Magazine (1953, exposed
as CIA front 1967). Trueba must have been a high value intellectual but I can find no
traces on him except that Agustin Trueba Calvo was born in Santa ??? in 1923 and his
wife Felisa was ... Trueba' s brother was shot by the Spanish Fascists and his mother
spent 13... [Homage to Spanish Exiles Voices of the Spanish Civil War Nancy

On January 31, 1964, Birch D. O‟Neal, Chief, CI-SIG signed a Memorandum for the
Record in response to the document about Rosa Kuznetsova having been married to
Augustin Trueba. Based on the description of Rosa Kuznetsova furnished by the
Historic Diary, - lived in Minsk, blonde, 23, O‟Neal concluded the two Rosa Kuznetsovas
were not identical. After O‟Neal spoke with Raymond Rocca, the latter ceased to
conjecture:
The possibility of these two individuals being identical was discussed with
Raymond G. Rocca of CI Staff and he expressed the opinion that based
on his knowledge of the case it appeared quite clear to him that the Rosa
Kuznetsova concerning whom entries were made in the address book was
identical with the Rosa Kuznetsova referred to in the diary.
People with the same name are not necessarily the same person, however, the CIA
found no traces in Minsk of a tourist guide, or anyone else named Rosa Kuznetsova,
nor could it verify that 130 Karl Liebnecht Street was a valid Minsk address. How could
CIA explain this away? OSWALD wrote: "I study russian elemantry and advanced
grammas from text books with a English speaking Russian intourist teacher by the
name of Rosa Agafonava, Minsk January to May 1960." The Warren Commission
remarked: "Reference to 'Rosa Agafanova' probably should be to 'Rosa Kuznetsova'."

Eric Titovitz, who knew OSWALD at this time, reported Rosa Kuznetsova died in
January 1992 in Minsk. Eric Titovitz became a neurosurgeon and professor.
