Specimens received 11/10/75
Q3 Parachute
Result of examination:
Specimen Q3 consists of the remnants of an orange and white parachute, mostly deteriorated. The FBI Laboratory does not have the necessary reference information to determine the origin or normal utilization of the Q3 parachute.
Because of the climatic variables involved, the age of Q3 and the duration of time it was concealed under a log cannot be determined.
