RE: PARACHUTES BELONGING TO EARL J. COSSEY

On October 25, 1972, COSSEY was interviewed, and he advised that the parachute found buried near Truckee, California, was not identical with one of those supplied to UNSUB.

COSSEY advised the parachute found buried was a seat pack and the one UNSUB used was a back pack. COSSEY further stated the parachute supplied to UNSUB had four cones and four grommets and the seat pack has only two cones and two grommets.

COSSEY stated that he had made available to Agents of the FBI his records containing serial numbers of the para- chutes supplied to UNSUB. COSSEY stated that his records were not returned.

A careful review of the file does not reflect the location of COSSEY's records.

AT SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

Will recontact COSSEY in an effort to have him recheck his records to determine if he possibly has them or has a duplicate set which may reveal the serial numbers of the four parachutes supplied to UNSUB on November 24, 1971.
