Book Chapter: PASSPORT NUMBER B-2362296

- Chapter Opening: Passport Number B-2362296 -

I

n late December 1971, armed with his new US Army issued identification card and accompanying piles of Army paper with the Jensen name and Social Security numbers all over them,[1] Private Jensen stopped off in Berkeley, California with a panel truck, to clean up his belongings from the rooming house owned by Leonard Coats[2] at 1314 Poe St.[3] and on December 20 he also picked up a new passport. 

From a Brazilian Federal Police document, their government and presumably others were not informed until August 10, 1972 that Jensen (Passport No. B-2362296) might be stopping by or passing through.
