One caveat.

Of this document, Bill Davy notes:

	It should be noted however, that this is the exact same wording from an affidavit
	from Jack Martin. So it seems the CIA was quoting from Martin's affidavit in this
	memo rather than stating their own conclusion. [CF: Affidavit of Jack Martin and
	Davis Lewis, February 20, 1968.]

This may not be so, when one considers that if the CIA was reporting from the affidavit they
would not have neccessarily translated it into CIA-ese (with the "SUBJ" and lack of punctuation).
If the document does quote the Martin/Lewis affidavit, it raises an interesting question as to
just how the CIA got the affidavit.
