Operation forty pic

[Peter Lemkin]

First off, I'd like to say, this is NOT an "operation 40" pic. There are however, a few operation 40 members in this pic, and if this is Tosh, was Tosh also apart of Op40? Secondly, has Tosh ever mentioned who he had his arm around in the pic? And lastly, could he name all the guy's in the photo? I know every single one of them and who they are, and in-fact met a few. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

P.S. Can you provide the FBI documents that says it's Tosh Plumlee? Thank you Dawn.

To my knowledge, there are NO publicly available documents about who is in the photo - but surely the CIA and FBI [possibly others] have detailed analysis/documents of the photo and the meeting it represents. At one time, after it emerged, when I was sure it was Tosh [hiding his face], he was denying it. More recently, he has admitted it to Dawn, myself, and others in emails and elsewhere. I said elsewhere that he certainly could tell you everyone in the photo [and the reason for the celebration/meeting], but he has refused to tell me anything more than where and when - but that is buried somewhere in many emails and I'm not in the mood to try to locate it just now. I'd suggest you, Scott, ask Tosh to name the persons. Some are obvious and there is no doubt. A few are. To my memory, Tosh never said he was 'part' of Op-40, but he often said he was associated with/supporting it [or persons/ops within it]. You'd have to ask him the subtle difference[s].

You'd have to ask him

As I said in a previous post on a thread we all had the very same discussion about not long ago, this is not something I'm willing to discuss as I have much respect for him, and a conversation I'm not willing to get into [with him] knowing, I'm not going to win.

I rest my case.

Tosh is likely not going to tell any researchers I know answers to these kinds of questions, at this time....there was a time he would - but that is not the situation now. I worked with him for years and had I the photo then, he would have. Not now. I'm sure the same will likely hold for Dawn and anyone else I know. Perhaps there is someone I don't know who still can get him to answer such things.......

....however, given the conversation I heard you and he had, I don't understand your reluctance to ask him in an email or as part of another phone conversation. It couldn't hurt.
