CIA memo advises employees on reporting illegal acts and rights
Washington CIA director William Colby issued an unclassified 2% page memo to staff dated February 28 outlining how to report illegal domestic activities and how to respond to a presidential commission inquiry. He noted employees have the right to remain silent like other citizens and provided contact details for commission members while stressing channels to report concerns. Separately in New Hampshire, Edward Paton, 24, emerged alive after four days missing on Mt. Washington, recounting sleeping in snow and surviving an avalanche as companions were separated during a weekend snowstorm.
