To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
I am a survivor of the June 8, 1967, Israeli attack on the USS Liberty and serve my shipmates as Director of Operations of the USS Liberty Veterans Association.
We are requesting a copy of “all the material” referenced in the January 16, 1978 memo from Herbert E. Hetu to George Cary, OLC, with the subject of “Amendments to the Freedom of Information Act” at item 1(c) of the memo “Israeli firing on the Liberty.”
The memo includes the notation at the bottom: “Approved For Release 2005/03/24 CIA-RDP81 M00980R000200020038-7”
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Joe Meadors
