This is correct. Vance is one of George's friends. I am not sure
of the relationship with John Maynard. Might be purely business.
I know that Vance sees K-600 plans. I am not sure about John.

George has copywritten his plans. Making copies will get you into trouble.
The K-250 sheets that PSUBS is selling were printed by George himself then
mailed to us. He controls all rights to make copies.
