Status of Document:
Postponed in Part
Number of releases of previously postponed information: 11
Reason for Board Action The Review Board's decision was premised on several factors
including (a) the significant historical interest in the document in question, (b) the
absence of evidence that the release of the information would cause harm to the United
States or to any individual
Number of Postponements: 10
Postponements All the postponements in this document represent Social Security numbers
Reason for Board Action The text is redacted because the public disclosure of the redaction could
