About this collection
The Subcommittee on Castro-Communist Subversion was chartered under the Interdepartmental Committee on Cuba (ICCCA) during the Kennedy administration to track Cuban-backed subversion across Latin America. Califano Papers and Taylor Papers file series in the JFK Assassination Records Collection preserve overview papers, monthly combat-subversion reports, and supporting cables. This thematic hub lists every indexed record whose title mentions Castro (including strict Castro-Communist subversion file series) while keeping each document in its parent JFK release collection for year-based browsing.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Castro-Communist Subversion collection?
It is a thematic index of declassified records whose titles or manifest comments reference the ICCCA Subcommittee on Castro-Communist Subversion — overview papers, monthly combat-subversion reports, and supporting files from the JFK Assassination Records Collection released on archives.gov.
Who chaired the Subcommittee on Castro-Communist Subversion?
The subcommittee operated under the Interdepartmental Committee on Cuba (ICCCA) during the Kennedy administration. Indexed papers include memos from Marine Corps Brigadier General Victor H. Krulak to the ICCCA and file series from Joseph Califano's and Maxwell Taylor's personal papers.
Why are these records in the JFK collection?
Congress mandated disclosure of assassination-related records in 1992. Files on Cuba policy and counter-subversion that agencies deemed relevant to the Kennedy assassination were folded into the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection and released in tranches from 2017 through 2025.
Are the PDFs hosted on BlackVaultDocs?
No. Every PDF link points to the canonical file on archives.gov. BlackVaultDocs stores metadata — NARA record ID, title, release date, and parent JFK release collection — so researchers can search and cite without mirroring the primary source.
