Section D-2 \u2014 which is the second folder of three labelled in the\u00a0Guyana Index<\/em><\/a>\u00a0as \u201cGuyana Contacts\u201d \u2013 consists of 619 pages. The complete PDF is\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The citation for these documents should open with the FBI\u2019s official designation of these records, which is \u201cRYMUR 89-4286.\u201d Each individual page in these records has a unique number. Page 381 of this document, for example, is marked \u201cD-2-k-11a\u201d. The complete citation for that page, then, would be \u201cRYMUR 89-4286-D-2-k-11a\u201d.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that the first seven sections of the listings below present the pages in the order in which they appear on the pdf, but \u2013 insofar as is possible \u2013 the texts of the documents themselves have been arranged in chronological order.<\/p>\n
