Editing William Casey (section)

==Connections==
[[Operation Condor]]: Casey was not DCI during Condor’s peak (1975–1983), but his predecessors’ CIA support for Condor regimes (e.g., Chile’s Pinochet) set precedents he continued. His backing of Argentina’s junta during the **Falklands War** (1982), per *The Pinochet File* by Peter Kornbluh, and use of **Crypto AG** devices to monitor Latin American militaries, align with Condor’s legacy, though no records tie him to [[Condortel]] or [[Colonia Dignidad]].

[[School of the Americas]] (SOA) Casey’s CIA funded SOA training for Latin American officers, including those involved in Central American counterinsurgencies (e.g., El Salvador), but he had no direct role in its management.

[[Brazilian Advanced War College]] (ESG): The ESG’s anti-communist doctrine paralleled Casey’s policies, but no evidence connects him to the institution.

[[Colonia Dignidad]]: No primary sources link Casey to the Chilean cult, though his CIA’s support for Pinochet’s regime indirectly bolstered DINA’s operations, including at the colony.
