Richard Bratton's Mission to Cuba
The phone rang and Richard, a muscular, good-looking, black haired middle-age man answered the phone. "Hello" he said. The voice on the phone said "Are you ready?" Richard replied, "Yes, as ready as I'll ever be." The voice responded: "23:00 hours at the designated point of departure." And the phone went dead.
Richard went to his closet and took an old all leather bag and filled it with underwear, field glasses, swimming suits, toiletries, family photos, two Stuart Woods's books and magazines. He added his Canadian passport and the EPI ID tags. He also filled a folding Samsonite travel bag with two light weight suits, some dress shirts, polo shirts, two Hawaiian shirts, some jeans, one pair of dress shoes, one pair of Nikes and some sandals. He then placed his 38 Smith and Wesson revolver, along with a box of bullets he had kept in the office safe located in the den of his Bethesda, MD home, into the leather bag.
He also checked his briefcase where he had stored several files, university documents and student tests to be graded. He also included a small AM-FM radio with short-wave capabilities, an IBM laptop with coding and decoding message capabilities, and a late model IPhone. He also included a copy of his contract with EPI – Canada's Edmonton Polytechnic Institute – a one year contract to conduct research on Cuban methodology of raising coffee and sugar cane plants, as well as schemes for crossbreeding systems related to plants' care and growth, harvesting and collection of beans, and sugar cane stems.
The contract also called for study of the refining of sugar, marketing and export volume of these products. The contract showed that Richard was a graduate of Edmonton EPI in 1953 with a Master Degree in Agricultural Business (Economics, Finance, Marketing, public policy and science topics). He also had a degree in Computer Sciences from Ottawa's University. Richard was listed as an EPI Adjunct Professor, specializing in research. This was the CIA cover he'd use in Cuba. The agency had constructed a background file on Richard they felt it would stand the most intense scrutiny and vetting by Cuban authorities.
In his real life, Richard was a career CIA operative born in Dearborn, MI of immigrant parents of Canadian citizenship. Richard was an expert in recruiting spies and running clandestine rogue operations from sabotage, to misinformation, to other means of debilitating enemy governments. After years of training and intelligence undercover work in different countries, he had returned to Canada to live with a close relative. Later he enrolled at the University of Edmonton to prepare for the mission he was now assigned to implement in the surroundings of the city of Cienfuegos, Cuba.
He examined his Canadian passport issued in Ottawa, Canada on July 13, 1993 to Prof. Richard Julien Bratton, born in Halifax, N.S., April 14, 1951. A Cuban entry visa was affixed to the passport issued August 22, 1993, designation: cultural/university researcher visa issued by the Cuban Embassy in Ottawa, signed by Jose Miguel Martinez Machado, Consular Officer.
Ricardo sat at the end of his bed and reviewed in his mind the briefing received from his Control, Bob Massey, a CIA Special Operations Officer. Massey wasted no time. "Your mission is of the most importance and, it will be a very dangerous assignment. Your job will be to identify the location of what we believe are concrete silos concealed under coffee and sugar plantations throughout the Cienfuegos a

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
