It's always a little disconcerting to get an envelope from the FBI.<\/p>\r\n

But in this case, it was another set of documents about my father, in response to the FOIA request I made in late 2012. This time, the information is from the FCC.<\/p>\r\n

Sadly, there's nothing much else in this release. A total of twelve pages, about half of which are about Rigsbee, the soldier-of-fortune who they thought was Peter. Nothing new except for the amateur-radio stuff.<\/p>\r\n
