Memorandum

TO : SAC, DENVER (164-98) DATE: 6/10/77

FROM : SAC, SEATTLE (164-81)(SUB 829) (P)

SUBJECT: NORJAK OO: SEATTLE BUfile 164-2111

RE: JAMES CROAK SEfile 164-81 SUB 829

---

Re Seattle airtel to Denver, dated 10/19/76.

Referenced communication requested Denver advise Seattle if a typographical error had occurred. To date this has not been done. All investigation to process CROAK as a suspect in this matter has been inconclusive and, therefore, the following leads are set out:

LEADS:

DENVER DIVISION

At Loveland, Colorado

Will conduct appropriate investigation as suggested in Seattle report of SA [redacted] dated 5/30/73, to process CROAK as a suspect.

Will advise Seattle if a typographical error had been made in referenced communication, and if the appropriate correction was sent to the Houston Division.

If all efforts fail to process CROAK satisfactorily as a suspect in this matter, he should be interviewed and an FD-302 should be forwarded to the Seattle Division.

ARMED & DANGEROUS.

Standard US Government memorandum header identifying the memo as from the FBI Seattle field office (SAC Seattle) to the FBI Denver field office (SAC Denver), dated June 10, 1977, subject NORJAK (the FBI's D.B. Cooper hijacking case), regarding a person named James Croak. Body of the memo: Seattle FBI office follows up on an earlier October 1976 airtel to Denver about a possible typographical error, notes that investigation into James Croak as a NORJAK (D.B. Cooper) suspect has been inconclusive, and sets out leads for the Denver Division (at Loveland, Colorado) to further investigate Croak, check on the typo/correction sent to the Houston Division, and interview Croak with an FD-302 report if other efforts fail. Notes Croak should be considered armed and dangerous. Distribution/routing footer listing copies sent to Denver and Seattle field offices, typist initials (RNN/dlb), several handwritten annotations and initials that are difficult to read, a partially legible handwritten file number (164-81-45x), an FBI records routing stamp box with 'Searched/Serialized/Indexed/Filed' fields, a small illustration of an eagle/Minuteman-style figure with a U.S. Savings Bonds slogan, and the collection Bates stamp 'DB COOPER-55123'.

Typed memo text is clear and fully legible.
Two black circular marks near the top of the page (near letterhead) are of unclear origin — possibly stamps, redactions, or scan artifacts.
Handwritten annotations in the lower right and lower left are partially difficult to read.
SA name in the body text and in the bottom-right redaction box is withheld/blacked out, marked with b6/b7c exemption codes.
