 I've contacted them and... they can't provide me the document, named
 BBN Report 1822 inside the company.

 Can someone helps me, please ? I should agree too other providings

You may have some trouble finding that, as it was one of the very few
RFCs/STDs that wasn't ever online.  You'd have to find a library that
has an old copy, or find someone who has scanned a copy.

Old RFCs aren't normally taken offline, so my "dump" of RFCs from
around 1998 should be complete -- apart from ones that were never
online in the first place, like RFC0007:

0007 Host-IMP interface. G. Deloche. May-01-1969. (Not online)
     (Status: UNKNOWN)

which is a discussion about the software part for the interface  This
particular one *is* now online, with the following Editor's comment:

   [The original of RFC 7 was hand-written, and only partially
   illegible copies exist.  RFC 7 was later typed int NLS by the
   Augmentation Research Center (ARC) at SRI.  The following is
   the best reconstruction we could do.  RFC Editor.]
