Mr. Jenner. And you arrived in Japan about when?

Mr. Pic. 10 November 1958, sir.

Mr. Jenner. Were you aware before you left for Japan that Marilyn Murret, was in Japan?

Mr. Pic. She was not in Japan then, sir.

Mr. Jenner. All right. You arrived in Japan and went over there sometime while you were in Japan. By the way, first where were you stationed?

Mr. Pic. My military address was U.S.A.F. Hospital, Tachikawa, APO 323, San Francisco, Calif.

Mr. Jenner. You heard from or saw Marilyn Murret after you got there?

Mr. Pic. Right. In approximately October–November, early November, the end of October 1959 she called me up at the hospital, and it had been years since I had seen her, and she told me she had come from Australia. She was traveling around the world, and I invited her out to the house the next weekend.

She couldn't come during the week. She was teaching school in Japan and as a freelance teacher working for no agency, just doing this to earn her own traveling money. So she visited us on a Sunday, I believe.

We talked about the family and everything. She talked about Lee, about how proud he was to be in the Marine Corps, and he really put on a big show about this.
