Control of Communications - First Draft


CONTROL OF COMMUNICATIONS - First Draft 

If one of our primary hypothesis is true- and the assassination was not the work of a deranged lone gunman but rather a very detailed plot, plan and coup d’etat – then those responsible for the killing of the President did so by the book – Coup d’etat A Practical Handbook – by Edward Lutwak, in which control of the communications is a requirement for a successful coup.

If that is true, and those responsible for the assassination controlled the communications, we can identify them by determining who controlled the communications and how they did it. Sort of working the evidence backwards, as we know a lot more now than anyone did then.

Control of Communications is one of the five aspects of the German military's Valkyrie Plot to kill Hitler that appears to have been adapted for use against Castro that was redirected to JFK in Dallas. The Communications are a key element in any covert intelligence operation, and would have to have been included in any serious operation aimed at killing the president. 

For starters, we know most of the early information about the assassinations came across radios – first the radios in the motorcade, then commercial public radio stations – and they were limited.

The Known Base Stations were:

The Dallas Police had two active channels – One and Two – both recorded by dictabelts, which are the basis of the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) acoustical study which concluded there are four shots on the tape. All Dallas PD cars and motorcycles had radios tuned to these two channels.
White House Communications Agency (WHCA) also manned a makeshift base station in a suite of rooms at the Dallas Sheraton Hotel, where the Secret Service and WHCA – as well as George Herbert Walker Bush were registered.

It is also the locaton of the lobby where David Atlee Phillips met with Antonio Veciana and Lee Harvey Oswald in September 1963.

This base station was for “Charlie” Channel, the motorcade’s primary channel used by the secuirty team and monitored by Captain Swindell, who sat in the pilot’s seat of Air Force One and listened in.

In the motorcade there were radios tuned to Charlie Channel in the pilot car, the lead car, the Lincoln Limo the President was in and the car LBJ was in a few cars back. Other cars in the motorcade may also have radios.

There were two other sideband radios on Air Force One – but they were not used and the automatic recording device did not kick in until the plane was in the air.

The Air Force One radios were associated with the Mystic Star network – run by the WHCA – which utilized an AT&T switchboard known as “Waldorf,” and had relay stations in Brandywine and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the headquarters of Collins Radio – makers of the radios and contractors for their use. The relay staton in Cedar Rapids was known as “Liberty” and can be heard often on the extant AF1 radio tapes.

Others base stations attached to the Mystic Star – Air Force One – network included the White House Situation Room, Andrews Air Force Base – home of AF1, and the Strategic Air Command (SAC) – the Air Force bomb and missle command that also used Collins Radio and were attached to this network.

After the assassination a makeshift WHCA base station was set up in the office of the Secret Service Director in his office in the Executive Office Building (EOB) next door to the White House.
Other base stations attached to the network were Site R – and the SAC headquarters, but they remained silent during most of the assassination proceedings.

More recently, another base station was identified – at the Dallas Emergency Command Post – a bomb proof underground command and control center below the Science Museum at the Texas State Fairgrounds, where the Dallas Police Special Services Unit also made their headquarters. More than half of the Dallas Special Service bureau policeman were also US Army Reserve officers.

This Dallas Emergency Command Post was run by Jack Crichton, head of the US Army 488th Intelligence Unit, though Crichton reported to be at a conference at the Adolphis Hotel at the time of the assassination, while the Emergency Command Post was directed by an assistant, also a Colonel........
