He discovered numerous documents from hospitals, alleging Dr. Roman erred in his surgical procedures. One of these documents indicated that Dr. Roman, after performing a kidney operation on a woman, accidentally cut off the woman's breast.
He further found 30 or more apple boxes, containing books, which indicated they had been taken from various libraries. These books had to do with stories on Hitler, medical books, spy stories and other topics.
He has learned that Dr. Roman was apparently the first doctor to become an astronaut and has found documents which indicate Roman was a jet pilot. In amongst the items indicating Roman was in the United States Air Force, were items marked, "Top Secret." These items, he recalls, also had the stamp of "Declassified" on them.
The majority of the items that he found in the home were provided to the lawyer for the estate for subsequent dis- persement to the appropriate relatives.
He is bringing this matter to the attention of the FBI, inasmuch as the whole situation appears to be extremely bizarre to him. While he is in no way certain this matter is involved with the D. B. Cooper matter, it is interesting to note that Dr. Roman was a jet pilot, was apparently knowledgeable of airplanes and resided in an area adjacent to the flight path of Cooper's plane.
