Who the heck is this guy? So Joe Shmoe wrote a letter. So what?
Now what I want to know is ....
1) Why did Col. Prouty dig up this stuff?  As a hobby? Too correct a
wrong as a tireless campaigner for the truth? Apparently, he went to
alot of effort. Why? 
2) How did he obtain this information? Was it provided by any member
of the Church?
3) Was he paid by the Church?
4) Is he a member of the Church or has he participated in Dianetics?

Why do you suppose the Navy is out to get Hubbard? What are the
conspiracy theories?
