Header block of FBI internal memo addressed to SAC Seattle, case file 164-81, dated 12/27/72, concerning NORJAK case. SA name and RR field are redacted under b6/b7C privacy exemptions. References a prior memo dated 12/11/72 from a redacted SA. A referenced communication identified a person (name redacted) who might possibly match the Unknown Subject (D.B. Cooper). The person is described as being in his 40s, approximately 5'11", with black hair, dark eyes, weighing 170-175 lbs. Because the description of the redacted suspect is incomplete, a lead is assigned to the Seattle field office at Bellingham, Washington.

The memo includes an ARMED AND DANGEROUS warning. Informs the Bellingham Resident Agency that a copy of Serial 4204 (corrected from 4924) with photographs is enclosed for the lead.
