US Army Intelligence shredded their Northwest Liberation Front file in 1977.  Seattle Police objected to it's Freedom of Information Act release because it would neutralize their counterintelligence techniques and render their informants useless.

Northwest Liberation Front files are part of 1965-75 Portland Police Intelligence Red Squad records available to the public at:  Stanley Parr Archives and  Records Center; 9360 N. Columbia Blvd; Portland, OR   97203; 503-823-4361; sparc@ci.portland.or.us

Urban Warfare Cell composed of babies who had died in infancy...

Northwest Liberation Front members assumed the identities of dead babies who would have been about the same ages had they not died in infancy.                                                                    

Susan Louise Stoner requested and received these birth certificates using the address of the Radical Education Project Bookcenter. The Oregon State Department of Vital Statistics didn't cross check birth and death records at the time.

Susan Louise Stoner, James Wesley Akers, Robert Patrick McSherry, and James Arthur Cronin were all REP bookstore employees for the owner, French professor Dr. Frank Stearns Giese.

Giese and Stoner operated the Portland Prisoner Support.  Stoner provided transportation for prison visitors.  Dr. Giese ran educational seminars in the OSCI prison's Psychological Services department.  He showed movies and gave books to inmates from his bookstore.  Police Intelligence investigated  Portland Prisoner Support during it's operation according to a 1972 internal police memo.

The Northwest Liberation Front misdeeds included the attempted kidnapping  of  prominent business leader Ira Keller, two dynamite timebombings, a gunstore robbery, a restaurant robbery, and bank robberies.  An NLF 68-stick dynamite timebomb  was found in a burning Seattle house.

Two Steps Forward, One Step Back:  Susan Louise Stoner, James Arthur Cronin, and Frank Stearns Giese did not assume false identities and remained  the Above Ground connections  for the NLF.  Their tasks were educating, recruiting, and organizing.

Cadres in the Field:  Members who were the most active in the field all had assumed names with genuine identification cards.  The Underground arm of the NLF included James Wesley Akers, Robert Patrick McSherry, Leslie Ann McKeel, Max William Severin, Chester Benson Wallace, and Lynn B. Meyer.

The FBI classifies this group as "political gangsters".
