addresses where the wounded can sevlly be found, since they are
under our care and protection, Nor should we supply addresses of
those involved in the organization's clandestine work to the hospitais
“and health centers where we take them. Such concerns are indis-
pensable to cover any track or clue,
The houses in which the wounded stay cannot be known to anybody
with the unique and exclusive exception of the small group of com-
rades responsible for their treatment and transport.
Sheets. bloody clothing, medicine. and any other indication of
treatment of the comrades wounded in combat with the police, must
be completely eliminated from any place they visit to receive medical
trealment.
Guerrilla Security
The urban guerrilla lives in constant danger of the possibility of
being discovered or denounced. The chicf security problem is to
make certain that we are well hidden and well guarded, and that
there are secure methods to keep the police from locating us or our
whereabouts. . .
The worst enemy of the urban guerrilla and the major danger we
run is infiltration into our organization by a spy or an informer.
The spy trapped within the organization will be punished with
death. The same goes for those who desert and inform to the police.
A good security is the certainty that the enemy has no spies and
agents infiltrated in our midst and can receive no information about
us even by indirect or distant means. The fundamental way to insure
this is to be cautious and strict in recruitmg.
Nor is it permissible for everyone to know everyone and every-
thing else. Each person should know only what relates to his work.
This rule is a fundamental posnt-in the abc's of urban guerrilla se-
curity.
The battle that we are waging against the enemy is arduous and
difficult because it is a class struggle. Every class struggle is a
battle of life or death when the classes are antagonistic.
The enemy wants to annihilate us and fights relentlessly to find
us and destroy us, so that our great weapon consists in hiding from
him and attacking him by surprise
The dangeg to the urban guerrilla is that he may reveal himself
through imprgdence or allow himself to be discovered through lack
of class vigilance. It is inadmissible for the urban guerrilla to give
out his own or any other clandestine address to the enemy or to talk
too much. Annotations in the margins of newspapers, Jost documents,
calling cards, letters or notes, all these arc clues that the police never
underestimate.
Address and telephone books must be destroyed and one must not
write or hold papers: it is necessary to avoid keeping archives of
legal or illegal names, biographical information, maps. and plans. The
points of contact should not be writen down but simply committed
to memory.
