Good afternoon,

After infonning us that there may be additional documents between Larry Keefe and Vertol
responsive to your request that we may have missed, the Office of Open Government ("OOG")
conducted a further investigation to identify, locate, and collect the missing records. To this end,
we met with Mr. Keefe again, who suggested that we search for the keyword "Heat" within his
personal email account at 191keefe@gmail. com. Wehadpreviously searched this account for
records responsive to your request, but the search yielded no such records.
According to Mr. Keefe, "Heat 19" was a "call sign" given to him years ago by a former military
official for use in their communications. The keyword search led us to discover another email
address belonging to Mr. Keefe-heatl9. heatl9@gmail. com. OOG was unaware of this email
address and had not previously searched it for responsive records. The Gmail account for the
"Heat 19" email address was not in Mr. Keefe's name. The name on the "Heat 19" account was
"Clarice Starling"-a related "call sign" used by Mr. Keefe in his previous, private work with
people in the military community. According to Mr. Keefe, he created and sometimes used this
account while in private law practice to communicate via email in this setting.
After discovering the "Heat 19" email address, OOG conducted a search for responsive records
involving this address. This search yielded the records we are producing now. Please note that
we are producing all records we could locate with the "Heat 19" email address that pertain to the
Martha's Vineyard flight, even records that fall outside the date range and scope ofyour request.
If you believe there are other responsive records we may have missed, please let us know so that
we can attempt to trackthem downandprovide themto you.
Sincerely,

Open Government
