OCCURRENCE: On 2 November 1963, GENERAL DON informed CONEIN that he needed money to pay the families of persons killed during the coup. CONEIN gave GENERAL DON an additional 1,750,000 piasters. One bundle of 250,000 piasters was overlooked and was found later in CONEIN's safe. (The IG Report goes on to note as follows: "The passing of these funds is obviously a very sensitive matter.")
