TOP SEGRET
involving the commitment of the paramilitary force described above are
discussed in succeeding paragraphs, They are:
a. Employment of the paramilitary force in a manner which
would minimize the appearance of an invásion of Cuba from the outside.
b. Commitment of the paramilitary force in a surprise
landing with tactical air support, the installation under its protection on
Cuban soil of the opposition government and either the rapid spread of
the revolt or the continuation of large scale guerrilla action in terrain
suited for that purpose.
c. Commitment of the paramilitary force in two successive
operations: First, the landing of one company without air support in a
remote area in which it could sustain itself for some days (hopefully
indefinitely), and second, the landing of the main force forty-eight hours
later in a widely different location in the same manner as in paragragh 3.B.
above.
d. Commitment of the whole force in an inaccessible region
.
where it would be expected to keep control of a beachhead for a long
period of time to permit installation and recognition of a provisional
government and a gradual build-up of military strength.
