Notable pair of ALSs in Spanish, both signed "F.," no date, both 6 x 6.5, both addressed to Generals Arnaldo Ochoa and Polo Cintra Frías. The first letter, untranslated, four pages in length, is heavily edited by Castro, who strikes through several lines to each page; the second letter, one page, with collector's notation dating the letter to February 7, 1988, in part (loosely translated): "The…regiment should go to Lubango. Then we will decide its further location. Continue insisting with the Angolans the delivery of the requested groups." In overall very good to fine condition, with creasing, staple holes, and an area of thin paper on the fourth page of untranslated letter. General Arnaldo Ochoa was the head of the Cuban Military Mission in Angola, and General Polo Cintra Frías was the commander of the Cuban troops in southern Angola.
