Richard McGarrah Helms (March 30, 1913 – October 23, 2002)
Richard Helms was director of the Central Intelligence Agency from 1966-1973. He. replaced John McCone. Helms had an intelligence background as a member of the OSS during World War II.
Richard Helms background gets a little disturbing when looking at his second wife. Cynthia Ratcliff was born in 1923 in London. the daughter of a British diplomat or spy who was stationed in Shanghai, China no later than 1924. Cynthia first married a Scot, Allan McNeil McKelvie. He was a medical doctor. The couple moved to Vancouver, Canada, and looked to have been living there for around 7 years. He obtained a position at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota and they applied for naturalization. Or, perhaps, she was living in Vancouver and he was working at Mayo, because he was working for the US Navy in 1942. They had four children, but at this time, we're not sure where they were born. The McKelvie's were married in London in 1943 and were living in Vancouver by 1948. Their U.S. naturalization papers were filed in 1956.
This gets more disturbing when you realize the current DNI recently appointed by President Trump is John Lee Ratcliff. When you check the London births of John Lee Ratcliff's, you stop looking because there are so many. Aside from the obvious question, it is a legitimate question to ask if Richard Helms was set up to be placed in the position very early on.
