On November 25, 1971, at 3:55 PM, I called SA ROBERT PETERSON at the Bureau. I told him that since the Army would not furnish any helicopters, the Navy at Whidbey Island NAS, Oak Harbor, had agreed to furnish two which could be used if permission was obtained from National Military Command Center in Washington, D. C. I asked him to make this request.
At 6:20 PM, SA PETERSON called and advised that an [REDACTED] had called and advised that the Army at Fort Lewis would furnish two helicopters; however, they would need "J.P. 4" fuel. I told him this could be arranged.
A [REDACTED] from Fort Lewis then called at 8:15 and advised two helicopters would be at the Woodland air strip approximately one hour after dawn, weather permitting.
I told him that they should meet SA MANNING at that point who would brief them on the search to be conducted.
