MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Summary of Contacts by Mr. Stephen Carter Greenwood
with Mr. E. Howard Hunt
I. On 4 December 1972 Mr. Stephen Carter Greenwood was inter-
viewed for the purpose of obtaining full details on his contacts with. "Ed-
ward" and an associate during the summer months of 1971. Mr. Green-
wood has now identified. "Edward" as being E. Howard. Hunt.
2. Mr. Greenwood advised that in the summer of 1971 he and his
section chief were called into the office of the Deputy Division Chief,
who briefed thel.n to the effect that a disguise, documentation, and. other
support were to be provided to an individual identified as "Edward."
Greenwood met with "Edward" the following day and made all the neces-
sary arrangements to immediately provide him with a disguise and. alias
documentation. "Edward" was observed signing his n.a.rne to those items
which required a signature, and he tried a mouth device that was utilized.
in connection with the operation.
3. Approximately two weeks later "Edward" called to indicate that
he needed some help with the disguise glasses.
Greenwood is not sure of
the timing, but he recalls that accompanied him to the
meeting because had been asked to provide "Edward" with a tape
recorder. showed "Edward." how the tape recorder worked, and
then departed from the house without waiting for Greenwood. The latter
individual made some adjustment to the glasses, and it was probably at
this meeting that "Edward" inquired about a backstopped telephone num-
ber and. address in New York. Greenwood indicated, that he would have
to check with his superiors. Mr. Greenwood is not absolutely certain,
but it is his best recollection that "Edward" also requested a disguise
and alias documentation for an associate.
4. At the next meeting "Edward" was accompanied by an unknown
associate, who expressed a requirement for a disguise, alias documenta-
tion, and a camera. Greenwood immediately made all the necessary
arrangements for this support and the associate was appropriately briefed

on. the use of the camera. "Edward" and his unknown friend talked about
having to stop by the Pentagon before going to the airport, and it was
indicated that further assistance would be r` equired immediately upon
their return from the trip. "Edward" did. not indicate where he was going,
- but he left the impression that it had something to do with the investiga- �
tion of drugs.
5. In what was assumed to be a long distance telephone call, Mr.
Greenwood was contacted at his home in less than three weeks. At this
time "Edward" asked that he be met at Dulles Airport at about 6:00 a.m.
the following day. Mr. Greenwood met "Edward" and his associate at
Dulles Airport early the following morning, when he was given some film
and asked to have it developed later in the afternoon. Greenwood. is quite
certain that the pictures were developed and delivered to "Edward" in
accordance with his priority request. It was also at about this time that
Greenwood was. informed by his supervisor that additional operatiortRi
support was to be curtailed because "Edward's" requests were beyond
what was authorized. In this last meeting with "Edward," Greenwood.
delivered the photographs and indicated that additional operational sup-
port would not be forthcoming without specific authorization. However,
"Edward" was obviously in a hurry, apparently having some type of
appointment, and the meeting lasted less than ten minutes.
6. Mr. Greenwood stated that he cannot be sure, but he estimates
that he met with "Edward" on about five different occasions. In response
to inquiry, Mr. Greenwood advised that he is now reasonably certain that
"Edward" is E. Howard Hunt, based. upon 1972 publicity relating to the
Watergate incident. With respect to the second individual, "Edwa.rdls"
associate, Mr. Greenwood stated that he was a "similar type" to Gordon
Liddy. Greenwood does not recall the use of the name "Tom," and it is
his best recollection that the second individual used the name "George."
