Gentlemen:

just saw the CBS production of the first "skyjacking" by a "D.B. Cooper" in which an artist's drawing of D.B. Cooper was displayed.

The picture bears a very striking resemblance to a [REDACTED] who was stationed with me as an aircraft commander of a B-47 bomber in the First Bombardment Squadron, Mountain Home AFB, Idaho during the period [REDACTED] [REDACTED] His age at that time was similar to mine -- approx 33 years old.

I do not know his present whereabouts. But in [REDACTED] when I visited him at Mt Home AFB he seem [guess: depressed] and was about to lose [REDACTED]

Sincerely yours [REDACTED] 9/1-9369
