CIA Nabs Soviet Forger Ring Destabilizing NATO
CIA reports that KGB counterfeiters forged U S military documents to sow fear among NATO allies amid Europe missiles talks. The hoax booklet titled Top Secret Documents on U S Forces Headquarters in Europe claims printed in England and "published as a public service." Forgeries date from 1962 63 and rely on manipulated or authentic items, some linked to Army Sgt Robert Lee Johnson who was jailed for espionage and later killed by his son. Analysts say many documents are old and diverge from current contingencies, though some authenticity may persuade European officials. The Kremlin effort reportedly employs up to three technicians with a 1979 budget near 200 million. The piece notes similar fakes included a field manual, a Carter speech, and a Mondale interview.
