I am not discouraged. It was his job to stay hidden and he did his job well.

You should feel a little discouraged. Osborn Oldroyd found him and he apparently divulged some pretty classified information that the War Department felt compelled to deny.

There's really no telling what "Commission" is being referenced. Although it does make the letter sound important. Did he voluntarily appear before a commission to divulge classified information about the photograph?

Lafayette Baker supposedly went under cover and yet we are all very familiar with his name and braggadocios comments.

This all sounds a little absurd doesn't it? It is fun though.

Has anyone read Fishel's Book?

There is a John Potter but not an Andrew Potter listed in the book.
