This document appears to be page 30 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the filename 'Epst_...'). The text details Edward Snowden's transition from the CIA to private contractor Dell, noting a security clearance loophole that allowed him to retain clearance despite CIA concerns. It describes his assignment to the NSA complex at Yokota Air Base in Japan in June 2009, where he trained military personnel on cyber security. The document bears a House Oversight Bates stamp.
