RE: D.D. Cooper
I had the pleasure, or should I say the opportunity of talking to D.D. Cooper in Portland Oregon, in a night club, right after his celebrated Hijacking, in which he parachuted out of an airplane, and into history.
It was actually a chance meeting, but he was talking to me in a low voice about how he didn't need the money, only the prestigue of knowing that the F.B.I. could be had, he stated to me that the F.B.I. only respect a sharp. and wise criminal, and that the sharper you are the less crime that you do.
D.D. Cooper mentioned to me that the latest pictures of him in the paper were not accurate, and that he was going to have Plastic Surgery, his words were Cosmetic Surgery.
D.D. Cooper was the coolest man that I had ever met, he seemed so professional; He talked of pulling one more job, on the level of the great Brinks robbery, this was to be done in Las Vegas, because he stated that few people had ever pulled off a big heist in Las Vegas, and lived to tell about it; I replied; D.D. That's Mafia money you're talking about, and he said yeah, I know, that's what keeeps me motivated.
I'LL say one thing for D.D. he loves Tatoos, he has them all over his arms, and legs. He claims that he paid a fortune to have them did when he was in the army.
I could go on talking about D.D. Cooper all day, but I must close now; For D.D. Along with Former President Richard M. Nixon are like so many other self-tortured souls who are vengeful of the F.B.I. for turning them down, when they so desperately wanted to be a member of the F.B.I.
I thank you.
