<title>ALLEGED NSA RECORDS DESTRUCTION </title>
<text>We found no evidence to support the March 1995 allegation that NSA and Army officials altered records pertaining to Guatemala in order to prevent scrutiny in any investigation, and we believe that there is no foundation to the charge. The allegation, communicated to a member of Congress in an anonymous letter telecopied to his office and also communicated to the press, appears to have been fabricated. Detailed analysis of the relevant databases indicates that no records on Guatemala were deleted or destroyed. Moreover, the officials identified in the anonymous letter, Lieutenant General Paul E. Menoher, Jr., the Army's Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence, and Colonel Daniel D. Day, an Army officer assigned to NSA, either did not have or did not utilize the access necessary to make the alleged alterations. Finally, the anonymous letter, which purported to be on NSA letterhead, does not match any letterhead used by NSA within at least the last twenty years. An investigating US Attorney also found no basis for the allegation. </text>
