Army rejoins hunt for air hijacker
WOODLAND, Cowlitz County — (AP) — Army troops were back on the job today, helping the Federal Bureau of Investigation search the area around Lake Merwin for a skyjacker who commandeered a jetliner last Thanksgiving Eve. An Army spokesman said about 200 troops of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment were helping search for a hijacker who gave his name as D. B. Cooper. The skyjacker took over an airliner on a flight from Portland to Seattle. He is believed to have parachuted over Southwest Washington. The troops on hand today made up "Essentially the same task force that was down there" when the search was resumed recently, an Army spokesman at Fort Lewis, where the troops are stationed, said.
