Jim's font size is bigger than Oswald! Quote of the Week already...

More shrieking like a stuck pig to hide the fact that you can't explain why the "tall, muscular, built like a footballer" Lee is the smallest, dweebiest kid in the CAP unit.

That, imo, is the right approach. 1. I don't believe he owned the camera. 2. Since the photos are fakes, no - Marina did not take them. I agree with Sylvia Meagher. When she testified about taking one photo in March, she was telling the truth. It was taken in Minsk in March 1962 - with a camera you held up to your eye as she described. This photo was inscribed to June who had just been born. It shows Oswald holding his shotgun above his head - a kind of celebratory pose for the birth. This photo was destroyed by Marina on the weekend of the assassination because she feared it would be incriminating. But before doing that, she had spoken to Ruth Paine about it - and therein is the genesis for creating the fakes. Imo, Ruth got the idea after that conversation with Marina.

Rotman showed Oswald around the newsroom, and the slight man with a faint Texas accent acted oddly. "He spoke in a kind of robotic tone and spouted Marxist doctrine like he had just read it in a book. He was strange and stilted," Classic Aspergers Syndrome Behaviors vary from limited or inappropriate social interaction, robotic or repetitive speech, and challenges with nonverbal communication. http://www.waaytv.com/appnews/understanding-asperger-s-syndrome-high-functioning-autism/article_479696d6-4c4a-11e5-9fbc-8f7cad5c3dbc.html Children with Asperger syndrome have fewer problems with language than those with autism, often speaking fluently, though their words can sometimes sound formal or stilted. People with Asperger syndrome do not usually have an accompanying learning disability. They are often of average or above average intelligence, although some may have an accompanying specific learning difficulty. http://www.autism.org.uk/working-with/education/teaching-young-children.aspx From Lilian Murret's testimony: "he was very polite and refined.” Or put another way, HE SOMETIMES SOUNDED FORMAL...

Doh! Got me again me, Bill!

standing far right and farthest back.......would look bigger if closer. ,gaal Ah, Steve. He'd look bigger if he was TALLER! Keep trying. I need the larfs!

Yep. same feller. The one - the only - Lee Harvey Oswald. Not the biggest kid in the class and built like a footballer as you lot claim. Positively puny next to his CAP cadet mates.

Armstrong Harvey & Lee site >>>> link http://harveyandlee.net/Early/Early.html "In September, 1954 Voebel entered the ninth grade at Beauregard. In October he witnessed a young man in a fight with Johnny and Mike Neymeyer. He helped to clean up the young man after the fight, thought he lost a tooth during the fight, and soon became friends with tall, husky LEE Oswald. A few days later Voebel was with Oswald on the steps of Beauregard when a young man named Robin Reilly punched LEE Oswald in the mouth, cutting his lip badly. Once again Voebel helped clean up LEE Oswald and their friendship began to develop. Soon after the fight Voebel took a photo of LEE Oswald sitting at his desk in Helen DuFour's English class at Beauregard, which he later sold to Life Magazine for $75. Seven months later Voebel attended a pre-high school conference with Oswald at Warren Easton HS. A month later, in June, 1955, Voebel and LEE Oswald began to attend Civil Air Patrol meetings." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lee looks slightly wimpy in above sited Life photo. Harvey to coin a phrase would be 'wimpier'. ,gaal RAFLMAO! You're a crack-up, Steve. The ingeniousness of the doppelganger program never ceases to amaze! Now they can grow and shrink and develop or lose muscle tone as needed! Those boys in the lab were beyond genius... golly,... they were almost up there with Judy Baker in the "clever" stakes...!

Jon, sorry. You need to read between the lines. The answer is that it doesn't matter if he read those magazines or not, He clearly was adventurous. If you're looking for the keys, you won't find them among the ads in True Crime. Ekdahl/CAP/Marines/Langley/GWU -- they're good starting places for the genesis of Oswald's (that's Lee Harvey - aka Marina's husband) "adventurous" spirit.

It was the "straight-laced" guys who read those. But they just kept them out of sight. Probably under their Playboy mags. Anyhow, you got your answer from me. What do you make of it?

From Armstrong, via the hardlylee.nut website "Banister and David Ferrie (who knew LEE Oswald from the Civil Air Patrol in 1955" Okay. Simple -- the Oswald who was in the CAP was the big husky LEE. So who the hell is this wimpy looking guy - the SHORTEST in the group...??!!!

What I consider to be the main points of information from vol 2 John Donovan told the basic truth during his WC testimony. He was got to after that and lied through to his teeth to anyone silly enough to listen. His purpose was to use broad stroke language allowing listeners to conclude that Oswald was recruited by Communists in Japan. Nelson Delgado's testimony needs to be taken seriously. Seriously, why has everyone fallen for the WC's interpretation of his testimony instead of what Nelson actually said? Oswald hot date, Rosaleen Quinn was herself a CIA agent preparing for a mission somewhere in the Eastern Bloc. Oswald's recruiter was David Ferrie What Ferrie recruited Oswald into was a CAP program with large flags pointing to domestic and foreign components. The foreign component was the birth of the false defector program. Ruth Paine's sister, Sylvia Hoke, is well known to have worked for the CIA as a psychologist under military cover. Not known until this book was the nature of that work. She was employed as part of a dedicated team looking at recruitment of people for the FICON program. FICON was the precursor to the U2 program. And this was all leading up to Oswald joining the Marines. Bear in mind that in book one, a lot of circumstantial evidence was laid out for the case that Edwin Ekdahl knew the Hyde clam while both he and they lived in NYC through a mutual interest in Norman Thomas and the cooperative movement. Ekdahl's sister even wrote a book on the subject. For the nitty gritty details on all this, the book is available through all online sellers. Here is the amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Harvey-Oswalds-Cold-Assassination-Reinvestigated-ebook/dp/B014KJPNBW/ref=pd_sim_351_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=189S5JSBF5JPY9MCNTXB&dpSrc=sims&dpST=_AC_UL320_SR200%2C320_

Jon, Nelson Delgado stated during his testimony about how he and Oswald talked about emulating William Morgan. But this is all old hat for me. I wrote about it ages ago at the forum you don't like to visit http://reopenkennedycase.forumotion.net/t59-william-morgan-lee-oswald So as a one-time only gesture, I'll copy and past the original post from the thread here Cute, huh? But it gets better -- Morgan was in Cuba with another CIA agent named John Spiritto. Spiritto ended up in a Cuban jail and confessed to the CIA assassination of Jorge Gaitan in Bogota in 1948 while he (Spiritto) was down there infiltrating student unions. And Oswald also wanted to be Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway blew his brains out after being given shock treatment and god knows what else by CIA psychiatrist Dr Rome. Rome was later employed by the Warren Commission to try and discern a motive from Oswald's writings. Then we have Oswald listing the archetypal man's man, Jack London as one of his 3 favorite authors on his Albert Schweitzer College application - despite no evidence he ever read any of his books. London's politics, like Lee's, were somewhat fuzzy at times. Funny thing is, the 3 authors he named were all beloved of the Unitarian Church which ran the college... but since the college never advertised and was all but invisible even to the Swiss authorities where it was located, how Oswald knew just what to write is a mystery. Cue Arlo Guthrie... and you can get anything you want at Langley's One Stop Shop... How deep do you want to go with this, Jon. I'm just getting warmed up...

Did Fritz ever explain why he broke formation? Or what was he ostensibly doing that caused him to break formation?

Breaker Breaker! Come in Hale Bopp, can ya read me, there feller? Over! We have a sitchi--yation here, Big Bopper. Sure could use your 'ssistence. Feller here claims to be a muse-ician and don't touch the hard stuff. You read me, there, good buddy? Don't make no sense. FakeNews.Com shows that cain't be right. FakeNews.com sez muse-icians are the devils vocal chords and they all drink more'n they earn. Hale Bopp? Come in Hale Bopp. I'm losing ya there. Come in, ya hear me, Bopper?

Jon, he talks about watching TV and reading magazines all day while truanting in NYC. The specifics regarding the magazines are never mentioned. I have always taken it to mean comic books. Whether he read the type of magazines you refer to when a bit older, I don't know. He could have been exposed to them in the brief periods Robert lived at home, or while working at Tujagues, or later in the Marines. The question about the alleged fascination with Philbrick fascinates me. He liked comics, therefore he had fantasies of power and revenge. He may have opened a gun magazine once. That makes him a gun nut. He may have liked spy books and tv shows. He was therefore drawn to emulate. He may have seen 7 days in May and so was influenced to assassinate Kennedy. In any case -- you haven't even specified who you're talking about. Lee Oswald or Marina's husband? Get with the program, Jon.

It's not a thick book,Bill, but it is heavily illustrated.

Dime buttered cop porn at the Texas Theater! Sorry, I couldn't .... resist. --Tommy BTW -- Great books, Greg. I'm learning a lot from them. Highly recommended! Thanks Tommy! As always... check's in the mail...

The next volume is the plain brown wrapper version.

Bill, I was very pleased when I read Jeff's conclusion that the recruitment officer Marguerite encountered was most likely Ferrie.

Sorry Jon, I don't speak Tiddinese. Can you break it down for me? What have your adolescent reminiscences and generalizations to do with Oswald? Or my book on Oswald? I read National Lampoon, sports and music magazines. My socks never hopped anywhere, but some did disappear mysteriously. I do know male Australian 17 year olds believed in cricket and football. And the beach and surf.
