November 2, 1956 Gentlemen, I've been greatly concerned that I'm hearing reports from Hungarians resisting Soviet occupation of a mysterious unit that's been openly collaborating with invading Soviet troops and assisting Hungarian troops in suppressing the revolts. There were some reports regarding these so-called ghost units back in the war. It seems that no one has noticed them, although reports from the Moscow indicate that the KGB are also aware of them. I fear that these unknown forces may try to influence Moscow to crack down hard against the anti-Soviet protest groups. The president has urged us to look into the matter at once. For now, I'm ordering for immediate preparations to reactivate the task force. Sincerely, Allen W. Dulles Director of Central Intelligence ---- December 24, 1959 Gentlemen, Happy holidays to you all. Blue Light, as I was told by the Special Activities Division, is now in its infancy. I've personally saw to our allies in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania that they are free to allow their nationals to travel to Washington DC and join the task force if they so chose. For now, training is done by experienced SAD veterans who saw action in Korea and Tibet. Over time, the unit will grow to expand its paramilitary capabilities. This means that a black budget will need to be allocated to it. I'm in talks with the president on how to proceed with this.

Personally, I have no idea who chose the unit name. Sincerely, Richard Bissell Deputy Director of Plans ----- March 11, 1966 Gentlemen, Vietnam is now intensifying. Intelligence provided by MACV-SOG has strongly hinted of the ghost soldiers seen fighting either on their own against our South Vietnamese allies or collaborating with the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese military. MACV-SOG teams have captured some of them. But most of them chose to die after using cyanide pills to ensure that they are dead on the spot and cannot be revived. What irks me is that despite our efforts to identify them, no solid information has come up. I'm deploying Blue Light to South Vietnam. Officially, they're under the command of MACV-SOG. But otherwise, they're free to operate on their own as long as they don't draw the attention of the press. I'm hearing of what's happening in China. While we don't have eyes and ears there, it may be prudent to ask our counterparts in the Taiwanese military if they can help. Our allies have raised concerns regarding the arrangements the task force has made with their work in the field that could easily reveal their involvement. I'll be speaking to some of their diplomats on this issue. Sincerely, Desmond Fitzgerald Deputy Director of Plans ---- July 1, 1969 Our embassy in Moscow has informed us that one of our moles in the Soviet government has mentioned a tour on the DMZ from the north has been scheduled. This consist of Soviet and Warsaw Pact military officers. This also includes those from North Vietnam and China, which is strange considering the slight border war skirmish it had with the Soviets. I don't know why this is happening. This may line up with some rumors we've been hearing that someone from high up wishes to defect. Blue Light is cleared to head to South Korea. But they should held back until we can confirm in some way that this defection is intending to happen. Sincerely, Richard M. Helms Director of Central Intelligence
