for some period of time. He came here from overseas in the summer of 1968 and he retired after twenty years of service, I believe, in October of 1970.

His morals, character and habits were certainly very good. To my knowledge he did not drink and was never in any sort of trouble. He was certainly mature and stable.

I knew nothing of any organizational affiliations. He is in my opinion a loyal American and I would recommend him for a position involving the security of our country.

I know little of his qualifications for a job with the Federal Government but he was in Air Traffic Control here and as far as I am concerned was a calm, quiet and solid sort of person. I would recommend him for any Federal position for which he is trained or qualified.

[REDACTED] b6 Per BOC b7C Per BOC I moved in here in December of 1968. At that time [REDACTED] and his wife were residing at [REDACTED]

He was a Marine as are all the tenants of this project. He retired in October of 1970 after twenty years and left the area. We were not close friends but we were neighborly. I would say his morals, character and habits were very good. He was a very good husband and father.

To my knowledge he did not drink. I have never known of him to be in any trouble, financially or with the law. He was certainly mature, stable and appeared to enjoy excellent health. I know nothing of his organizational affiliations and the only associates I would know of course were fellow Marines. He is in my opinion a loyal American. I would recommend him for a position considered critical from the standpoint of our national security.

He was a clam, quiet man. He never seemed to be rattled or "up tight". I believe he would be a good employee of the United States Government and I am sure if he qualified for the job I would recommend him highly.
