The following investigation was conducted by SA ROY L. BURNS:

AT [REDACTED], MONTANA

After several unsuccessful attempts, [REDACTED] was located at his residence, [REDACTED], on February 15, 1973.

On interview, [REDACTED] stated that he and an un- identified friend of his were discussing the hijacking in- volving D. B. COOPER and were trying to determine who, of all their acquaintances, would be most logical to consider as being suspect in having committed the hijacking. After dis- cussing the situation for some time, [REDACTED] and his friend decided that an individual by the name of [REDACTED] (phone- tic) would be the most logical individual. The reason they considered [REDACTED] as being a prime suspect is due to the fact that he was formerly a mercenary soldier in an unknown location, was a former [REDACTED] in Vietnam, and had done a substantial amount of propelling. [REDACTED] addi- tionally, [REDACTED].

In addition to the above, [REDACTED] and his friend believed that [REDACTED] would be a logical suspect due to the fact that he would simply enjoy participating in an activity of this nature. He is not particularly interested in the money, but being of the personality that he is, would enjoy just taking on the challenge of successfully effecting a hi- jacking.

[REDACTED] just feels that a hijacking is the type [REDACTED] of thing that [REDACTED] would enjoy doing.

[REDACTED] on interview, actually knew very little about [REDACTED]. He described him as follows:
