  1. 10/28/39..... and it says “postal m o” at bottom... how he paid maybe? As I mention, the timing is virtually the same as John and MARGE PITTMAN go to Moscow... That section is if children are to be included on the passport.... and ya know Steve, the mixture of block and cursive always seems to telling to me... you?
  2. But it’s important to remember that Mrs Reid sees A different Oswald.... with a coke walking thru the office Mr. BELIN. Do you remember what clothes he had on when you saw him? Mrs. REID. What he was wearing, he had on a white T-shirt and some kind of wash trousers. What color I couldn't tell you. Mr. BELIN. I am going to hand you what has been marked Commission Exhibit, first 157 and then 158, and I will ask you if either or both look like they might have been the trousers that you saw him wear or can you tell? Mrs. REID. I just couldn't be positive about that. I would rather not say, because I just cannot. Mr. BELIN. Do you remember whether he had any shirt or jacket on over his T-shirt? Mrs. REID. He did not. He did not have any jacket on. Mr. BELIN. Have you ever seen anyone working at the book depository wearing any kind of a shirt or jacket similar to Commission Exhibit 150 or do you know? Mrs. REID. No; I do not. I have never, so far as I know ever seen that shirt. I have been asked about that shirt before, I have seen it once before but not since all this happened.
  3. Mr. BELIN - What shade of blue? Dark blue, medium or light? Mr. CRAIG - No; medium, probably; I'd say medium. And, a--uh--light tan shirt, as I remember it. The briarloom button down shirt was indeed a lighter version of his arrest shirt Mr. BELIN - I hand you Exhibit No. 150. Have you ever seen a shirt like this before? Does this look familiar to the shirt that the suspect might have been wearing when you saw him, or this man running toward the station wagon?Mr. CRAIG - It's the same type of shirt.Mr. BELIN - I believe you used the phrase, "light shirt". Would Exhibit 150 be darker than the shirt he was wearing?Mr. CRAIG - Uh--it looks darker in here--yes, uh-huh.Mr. BELIN - Was this man running towards the station wagon wearing a jacket?Mr. CRAIG - No; I don't believe he was.
  4. If she did, everything in frame gets larger, even vehicles moving away.... The spot involves that crazy wide turn Truly said the limo made... and Position A... which FBI states the limo does pass thru, just not on film. It is also the critical transition from Towner to Zapruder....
  5. For an in-depth look at the duplicity of the pistol involving WESTBROOK.... https://kennedysandking.com/images/pdf/JosephsPistol.pdf I also come to learn that George Rose and Co may actually be George Rhoades and Co... parent to SEAPORT who gets the pistol from Century International Arms, Montreal... The SUCHERS {edit} After giving the paper a read I see I only mention the Personnel Office as the place the shells are picked up.... Westbrook's office appears to have been pistol central, when one gets into the thick of things....
  6. Then we have John and Marguerite PITTMAN who are sent to Moscow at almost the exact same time Oswald is... to work as a correspondent for The Worker.... (TBH, not sure if The Worker and Daily Worker are the same) The info on the PITTMAN's is heavily redacted... FWIW List of Denied in Full records in JFK Assassination Records ... May 1, 1975 - Whiting Wlllauer, John Irwin, General. Gray. et al. ... 01/0111964. CIA. 201-289248. CIA. JFK. 0612911993 1. Unclassified OSW17:V3 1993.06.29.09:19:02:840800: ...... MOSCOW. STATE. 11/01/1959 ...... MARGUERITE ...... PITTMAN, JOHN (LOOSE DOCUMENTS) ..... OP FILES ON (STAFF EMPLOYEE).
  7. See, now I personally don't see as much of a resemblance - and as you said, other than photos on a table side by side, the two would rarely if ever be compared to each other. Or the fact that quite a few involved in and around this case looked like him... I think as he got older, it was easier to find more men who looked like HARVEY... The photo just below and on the right end is the last photo I know of... of LEE. BTW - I realize he was closer to 5'9" than 5'7"... but still not just shy of 6 feet.... Then there is this complete impossibility.... shows you how bogus that "Marine" image is....
  8. ---- thanks Jim, glad to hear it continues to help.---- With regards to THE WORKER and a comment that he was reading it all the time.... The BYP show him holding two different papers....the Worker and The Militant which as I understand it would NOT be read by the same person if they held a single belief about Communism. While the Worker started in a more Socialist vein, as I read it, they went more pure Communist as time went on so that by 1963 the two papers represented quite different views. (My personal opinion is that whoever created these photos were showing what types of groups Oswald was infiltrating for the intelligence agencies he "worked" for. The Militant is an international socialist newsweekly connected to the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) The Daily Worker was a newspaper published in New York City by the Communist Party USA In politics, the Daily Worker consistently adhered to a Stalinist party line from the time of Joseph Stalin's rise to power in the Soviet Union.
  9. If you message me with an email address I can send you my spreadsheet in excel or pdf... It starts with Lee's father's death 8/19/39 and traces the two LHO entities.. it is still a work in progress but up to 1963 it's very detailed... I use text from the book as well as the footnoted sources.... This is at 101 San Saba Georgia Bell knows MO as "short, fat" - a practical nurse with ONE son Mr. JENNER - Excuse me, was that 101 San Saba?Mr. PIC - No, sir; I don't know nothing about 101 San Saba. From H&L p66-67: The day after the assassination the FBI office in New York City received a telephone call from Mrs. Jack Tippit, of Westport, Connecticut. Mrs. Tippit spoke with FBI Agent James McCarthy and told him about a telephone call she had just received from a woman with a foreign accent. The woman had read an article in the newspaper that identified Mrs. Tippit's husband, Jack, as a relative of slain Dallas Police Officer J.D. Tippit. The woman told Mrs. Tippit that she was from New York, would not identify herself, and had to come to Westport, CT for the purpose of calling Mrs. Tippit. The woman asked Mrs. Tippit not to say anything to the press about a woman calling as "they" would know who she was and she would be killed. The unidentified woman told Mrs. Tippit, "she knew Oswald's father and uncle who were Hungarians and Communists .... Oswald's father and uncle had lived at 77th and 2nd Avenue in Yorkville, New York City, that while living there they both were unemployed, got their money from the Communists, and spent all their time on Communist activities."
  10. John and I have discussed this possibility... he write in his book: Robert Edward Lee Oswald (father of Lee Harvey Oswald) was the son of William Oswald and Mary Harvey, born on March 4, 1896 in New Orleans. By 1963 brothers Harvey F. Oswald, William Oswald (wife Hazel) and Thomas H. Oswald (wife Adele) were dead. Sisters Alice (nee Mrs. Arthur Preston Barre), Ethel (nee Mrs. Edmond C. Carter) and Hattie (nee Mrs. James Coker) were still living and resided in New Orleans. Robert lived with his parents at 3419 Canal Street until he married Margaret Keating, on November 1, 1920, at age 24 Margaret Keating (her year of birth has also been shown as 1896 making her 24 in 1920....) 120 N Telemachus while LEE and mom live on Exchange... FWIW
  11. How about for this then Mark... As the limo moves away from TOWNER the column in the background gets larger while the rear tire of the limo in the foreground gets smaller.... I added a gif over here as I've run out of room here.... https://deeppoliticsforum.com/forums/showthread.php?17196-Manipulation-of-TOWNER-film&p=126353#post126353 Both Zapruder and Towner needed "fixing" to account for how badly they represent what actually happened.
  12. Thanks Paul... a real pleasure meeting you as well.. I so enjoy your POV and posts here, keep up your great work, FWIW we were talking about doing another one in SF in the first half of 2020... Maybe explore if that really was SHELLEY in New Orleans as I first expanded upon years ago... Looks like he only owns the one suit...
  13. Sounds good to me Larry.... Maybe an hour on Mexico City and the FBI's con job to protect the CIA's con job?
  14. Virtually every Vallee report tries to differentiate him from Oswald yet put him in a similar light without directly saying so... IMHO. If Chicago and Tampa were Diversions why did the SS destroy those trip reports as well? Between Newman’s newest work and the great things Steve Thomas is doing, ACIS (hope I got that right) and the Lt. Colonels are looking more and more culpable. If Taylor was aware but could not stop it, that might account for his emotions FWIW
  15. Ignorant question.... is an oxymoron like military intelligence.... (I miss George Carlin) Thanks for remaining the curious, interested, amazing contributor you are.... And thanks for your kind words....
  16. Thanks Michael... btw - seeing, sitting with and speaking with Cyril Wecht was amazing. The list of people speaking as well as in the periphery created a very special treat. I recommend getting to at least 1 of these... seeing the names and faces from these internet pages come alive is a bucket list must-do .... being asked to speak at one of these... a dream come true. DJ
  17. To all the people in Dallas at CAPA who went out of their way to mention their time reading and enjoying my work over the years.... THANK YOU!!! the validation of what amounts to now over 20 years of research, writing, making new friends, assisting existing ones as well as being helped by so many of the best, brightest and inquisitive minds here and elsewhere on the 'net has filled me to the brim with confidence, a wonderful warmth and a renewed sense of determination. Having done this work from the beginning for my own understanding, the whipped-cream and cherry is hearing first-hand how some of it helps others on their path. Most sincerely and humbly, DJ
  18. A question.... Dallas Methodist ER off N Beckley and E Colorado is closer than PARKLAND - I mean Parkland is 3 miles, Methodist 2 yet it seems they ALWAYS went to Parkland.. Tippit was moved from Methodist to Parkland for the Autopsy by Rose.... FWIW https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Dealey+Plaza,+Dallas,+TX+75202/Methodist+Dallas+Medical+Center+Emergency+Room,+North+Beckley+Avenue,+Dallas,+TX/@32.7447119,-96.8234696,1935a,35y,38.97t/data=!3m1!1e3!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x864e9915d508f639:0xcfa47bf25b709fe0!2m2!1d-96.8082993!2d32.7788184!1m5!1m1!1s0x864e997849bae6e9:0xa3e4b6b790f34e91!2m2!1d-96.825309!2d32.7595975!3e0
  19. There MUST be a phone log since it is still a call reaching both ends of the line. But since it appears to be a one way line OUT to the different ER services... the logs would only be at the receiving stations? https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh24/pdf/WH24_CE_2002.pdf page 5 Tim of Shooting 3. A. Patrolmen Willie B. Slack (Attachment 91) Called dispatcher for doctor and ambulance. 1. Dispatcher called O'Neal Funeral Home on "Hot Line" for ambulance. (a) Funeral home logged call at 11 .21 a.m., 4. November 24, 1963 Mrs. CASON. [spelling] F-a-r-r. And he was in charge on that Sunday because we did not have a sergeant there, and he had asked to speak to Farr, and I told him Officer Farr was working channel 2, which is a separate channel that we have, and so he told me, he said, "They just shot Oswald," or "Somebody just shot Oswald," and I told him, "Okay." And placed him on hold and told Farr that he had a red light on 531, and I proceeded to call the ambulance service on the hot line.Mr. HUBERT. Please describe the hot line?Mrs. CASON. The hot line is a straight line from our dispatcher office to the ambulance company which requires no dialing. You just lift it up and it rings from our office to theirs.Mr. HUBERT. So, then, immediately upon getting this information from Slack you passed it on to Farr by word of mouth?Mrs. CASON. I did not tell Officer Farr that Oswald had just been shot. I felt it was more important to get the ambulance and in time they would know soon enough. I told them he had a red light, and I knew Slack would tell him what happened in the basement.Mr. HUBERT. So then you flipped the button for the hot line at O'Neal Funeral Home?Mrs. CASON. Yes; I did.Mr. HUBERT. Did you get it immediately?Mrs. CASON. Yes.
  20. Wouldn't that same line be the cause for the ambulance to have arrived so early at Tippit? Jasper in the ambulance talks of a "Police hot line telephone circuit" FWIW DJ
  21. FWIW Bart et al.... Lic HERNANDEZ OCHOA who is the source ultimately of many of the Mexico Documents is an FBI asset as confirmed by Hoover... I believe all those docs are in the WCDs as I remember all the names I just saw.... but I could be mistaken Thanks again for the work you put into getting these out to us... DJ I write about him in the Mexico series....
  22. PS... With Waldman supposedly handing everything over the night before to the FBI, the SS was a bit late getting going as they first seem to contact KLEINS on Sat late morning. Although we all know that may or may not be true as conflicting reports have DOLAN taking the film as well as NOT taking the film and leaving it with WALDMAN in his safe... Point is, FBI has the ORIGINAL SOURCE DOCS and the source of the source, the film.... and to this day there STILL has not been seen a single FC Carbine bearing any one of the other 99 serial numbers listed.... If it WAS shipped in February... why is it the only one not marked off? {shout out thanks to Armstrong & Gil Jesus} More importantly.... From Nov 22 until the signings of the affidavits... the shipment with C2766 was sent June 18, 1962. Is this yet another C2766... Come to CAPA and find out... DJ
