Re: UNSUB; Parachute found by Mr. A. L. WHEELER Sub #786

It is noted that the parachute found by WHEELER is international orange and white, and that the four parachutes provided to UNSUB in this matter, three had entirely white canopies and one had a pink canopy. The one with the pink canopy was cut and used to hold the money.

In view of the fact that it is thought UNSUB parachuted near the Washington/Oregon border and not near the Reno area, and in view of the fact that the parachute that Mr. WHEELER found was found near Reno, no further investigation concerning this aspect of the case will be conducted at this time.
