RE: SUSPECT VANCE CLAYTON SAXTON

---

On 3/20/72, [REDACTED] Boeing Airplane Company, Seattle, Washington, advised writer that [REDACTED] Boeing, Renton, Washington, brought a photograph of VANCE CLAYTON SAXTON [REDACTED] which [REDACTED] had run across in his desk. The photo had originally been brought to [REDACTED] by a detective from King County Sheriff's Office some time before, during the investigation of the [REDACTED] case in Renton. When [REDACTED] again saw the photo on 3/20/72, he was re- minded of the artist's drawing of the hijacker.

[REDACTED] advised that SAXTON worked for Boeing but was terminated in 1961 and his personnel file, therefore, has been destroyed, as Boeing only keeps these records for ten years. He advised that [REDACTED] and himself have no more information than that which is written on the back of the photo. There is no need to recontact either of these individuals and there is no file at Boeing to review.

Suggest that records of the King County Sheriff's Office be reviewed for additional information as to VANCE CLAYTON SAXTON.
