Standard US Government memorandum header. Addressed to SAC Seattle with case number 164-81, dated 3/5/73. From a Special Agent (name redacted). Subject is NORJAK with a handwritten annotation reading 'Source'. A female caller from Lynnwood, WA telephoned the FBI on 3/5/73 claiming to have information about a major case the FBI was working on. She insisted on meeting an agent in person rather than discussing over the phone, fearing her phone conversation could create suspicion. When pressed, she identified the case as 'the big hijacking case, you know.' She provided no phone number but was told an agent would contact her. An indices check through NORJAK files and regular indices came back negative on her. A lead is assigned to the Seattle field office to contact and interview the caller in Lynnwood, Washington regarding any information she has about the NORJAK case. Administrative block at bottom of memo containing dictation initials (KRA/krc), a handwritten signature, file tracking stamps showing the document was searched, indexed, serialized, and filed in March 1973, and the Bates number DB Cooper-10824.
