Summary Record of NSC Executive Committee Meeting No. 6,
October 26, 1962, 10:00 AM
Director McCone summarized the attached intelligence memorandum,
including a statement on the current status of Soviet air readiness.
Mr. McCone described the celebration which took place in Havana
following the arrival of the tanker Bucharest which had been allowed
to pass the quarantine line because it was carrying only oil, which
is not now contraband. He said non-Bloc ships could be used to carry
military materials if they had been chartered on a bare boat basis by
the Russians.
Mr. McCone reported that he had stood down a CIA operation which
involved sending into Cuba by submarine ten teams involving fifty
people. He said he did not believe this should be done by CIA
unilaterally.
The President agreed and asked that the proposal to put ashore the ten
teams be discussed by the Special Group (NSC 5412) today. The Presi-

possibly as a subcommittee of the Executive Committee, and oriented
toward post-Castro Cuban problems. The President stressed the im-
portance of tying together all existing groups engaged in covert activities
in order to integrate our planning.
Director McCone raised the question of the location of the SS Oxford, a
communications
ship which is now standing some ten miles
off Cuba. He expressed his concern that this very valuable ship might
be destroyed by hostile action. The President said this was an opera-
tional problem, the Navy should have the authority to control this ship,
but it should take into account CIA's concern.
Mr. Bundy reported that three subcommittees are at work -- one on
Berlin, chaired by Paul Nitze, one on forward planning, chaired by
Walt Rostow, and one on worldwide communications problems, chaired
by William Orrick, who is working closely with the Defense Communica-
tions Agency.
Mr. Bundy called attention to the civil defense problem and obtained
agreement that no crash program wauld be undertaken now, although
