To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
A copy of FBI files on Carmel Offie, former official and the State Department from 1931 to 1948 and at CIA from 1948 to 1952. Mr. Offie died in a plane crash on June 18, 1972. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmel_Offie
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. Mr. Offie was dismissed from both Stated and CIA on suspicions of homosexuality. The story of the so-called Lavender Scare is in the news as this forgotten history is uncovered.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
