On 6/2/76 [REDACTED] Boeing, Seattle provided the personnel file of suspect CHESTER MARVIN MAY reflecting the following information:

SSAN: 542-30-6964 HT: 5'10" EYES: BLUE DPOB: 3/26/20 at Flora, Ore. WT: 150 HAIR: BRN ADDRESS: [REDACTED] Seattle Work phone: 655-0665 Employed at Boeing since June '57 beginning as a storekeeper, present position of Machined Parts Finisher. It was noted that during the Oct to Dec. 1971 period MAY received two temporary promotions (M.P.F. "B")

[REDACTED] advised that payroll records are destroyed after 3 years and it would not be possible to determine whether MAY was working on 11/24/71.

In view of noticeable scar on right side of MAY's face, age and the fact that he was enjoying a series of minor promotions at the time NORJAK was occurring additional investigation is being left to the discretion of the case agent.
