Mr. Jenner. Well, the answer is no?

Mr. Pic. No, sir; that is the answer—no, sir.

Mr. Jenner. That is that there hadn't been any such discussions?

Mr. Pic. That is correct, sir.

Mr. Jenner. You—I take it from that answer—you never heard him assert any views?

Mr. Pic. No, sir.

Mr. Jenner. On his part, with respect to that subject matter?

Mr. Pic. No, sir.

While I was processing to return to the States, I had seen in the paper and everything that Lee was returning to the United States. When I got my assignment to Lackland, the OSI kind of put it to me that if I didn't want to be in the same vicinity as Lee that they could change my orders, and I told them that the United States felt he was reliable enough for, confident enough in him to let him return, that I would see no reason to change my assignment. The OSI authorities said there was no objection to me visiting him, talking to him or anything else. So I didn't make any attempt to get my assignment changed because of these reasons. Being it was close enough, you know, to see him fairly easily.

Mr. Jenner. Did anything else occur that you think is pertinent to the time of your return to the United States?
