RECENT NAMING of CIA and other espionage experts in the American Embassy appears to have encouraged Washington to shake up their British operations.

According to sources from within the Embassy, the Americans have now:

* Replaced the chief of a super secret office of the US National Security Agency and at least four of the top officers of the CIA;

* Moved out half of the top-secret communications staff;

* And tried to mask the existence of a special intelligence team, one of whom continues to have an office and secretary inside the British Ministry of Defence at Whitehall.

According to veteran intelligence officers, this rapid turnover must certainly have disrupted the efficiency of American espionage in Britain.

Nonetheless, CIA and their sister services still have over 60 employees at the Embassy; and despite the tightening of the Embassy's security system, Red Weekly has managed to uncover their names - and addresses.

As far as we know, this is the largest list of American operatives ever published at a single go.
