January 14, 1983

F. B. I. U.S. Department of Justice Washington, DC 20537

Dear Sir:

While watching a television program depicting the $200,000.00 highjack heist of an airplane involving a demand for parachutes, I saw a composite picture of the thief who has never been apprehended and was reminded of a former acquaintance who moved to[REDACTED] [REDACTED] Bellevue, Washington from here around 1965.

His name is [REDACTED] a former employee of the Clay County National Bank in Spencer, Iowa who I under- stand is unemployed and has been for some time.

I have no knowledge as to his military service and any connection with parachute training and I am merely going on the strength of the picture and his whereabouts.

[REDACTED sender name/signature block]
