This document is page 223 from a book (likely titled 'The Russians Are Coming' or containing that chapter), marked with a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp. It details the history of NSA defectors Martin, Mitchell, and Hamilton who fled to the Soviet Union in the 1960s, as well as the case of KGB mole Sergeant Jack Dunlap. The text provides historical context on Cold War espionage but does not directly mention Jeffrey Epstein.
