1Opinion of the Court
MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judge:
Robert Lee Green was charged with conspiracy to distribute heroin. 21 U.S.C. § 846.
At a jury trial of Green and two others, United States Special Agent Robert Dixon testified about the alleged conspiracy. Dixon had been working for four years for the Drug Enforcement Agency. Prior to that he was, for five years, a police officer in Washington, D. C. Defense counsel adroitly asked Dixon whether, at Green’s arrest, his arms then exhibited the puncture marks frequently found on heroin users.1 Dixon stated that he could not remember the name of the arresting officer.2
