Header line indicating this is page two of an unclassified Washington Field Office document. Heavily redacted passage describing an individual who was commissioned as a military pilot, completed pilot training, spent ten months overseas as a pilot, was discharged, and graduated from an unspecified institution. Records list Army serial number, AVS number, and FBI number (all redacted). The individual was arrested in California, sentenced, and arrested again in connection with a hijacking in Sacramento, California. The subject effectively vanished after an arrest and did not resurface until being arrested again in Washington, D.C. At the time of writing, the subject was attempting to secure a passport to depart the United States for Europe. FOIA exemption codes b6 (personal privacy) and b7C (law enforcement personal privacy) marked repeatedly in the right margin, corresponding to the redacted portions. Bates stamp or reference number for the DB Cooper FBI file.

Heavy redactions (black bars) obscure names, dates, serial numbers, and other PII
