Flato is mentioned in [[Venona]] transcript #588 of April 29, 1944. Flato's complicity in espionage was corroborated by information exhumed from the NKVD archives in the 1990s. He was also a member of the “Sound” and “Myrna” groups. His codename in the Gorsky memo is "Bob". In another Venona transcript, he is believed to be codename "Char".
