This is a long shot possibility so I expect that any investigation will be done as discreetly as possible. An investigation of his work record would help to rule him out as a suspect if he was at work when the high jacking went down or had not taken any vacation then. He may have left the job at Rocky Flats before the high jacking but I just do not remember anymore.
Since then the Rocky Flats plant has been completely dismantled and the buildings all torn down and disposed of at a contaminated land fill. Dow Chemical Company was the prime contractor at the time so it would be necessary to check with their main office in Midland Michigan as they no longer have an office in Colorado.
About the time of D.B.Cooper there was a young man who worked with us at Rocky Flats nuclear plant between Golden and Boulder Colorado. He was working in the engineering office and was about 25 years old. His last name was [redacted] but I do not remember the first name. It should be easy enough to get the first name from Dow Chemical Company records.
One day he showed us a photo of his wife, all decked out in those underwear type outfits they wear in Karate classes, standing next to the instructor. She ran off with the instructor and [redacted] went bonkers. As I remember he was out on Colfax in Denver running across the street in heavy traffic. There may be a police report of that incident in either the Denver or Lakewood police offices depending on how far West it was on Colfax.
He had recently finished a class on sky diving and gave us some demonstrations on how much time you had to open your reserve chute in case the main chute did not open. He had also taken up with some girl who I believe was a daughter of a professor at the college in Boulder.
His behavior was flaky after his wife left him that way. I remember him standing on top of a drafting board and using an old ink well type pen to drop ink on a sheet of paper to see if he could hit a certain spot. That is not the kind of thing one would expect of a young engineering graduate. He did not seem to care if he got a poor report concerning his work activities.

I can not remember his first name but his last name was [REDACTED]. All I remember about a description was that he was Dark haired and not exceptionally differing in weight or height than average. I would say he was about 5-10 to 6-0 feet tall.
Sincerely: [REDACTED] Beloit, WI [REDACTED]
PS: I used to think [REDACTED] or D.B.Cooper.
