James Richards Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 I wanted to bring this thread back in light of the newer thread that Antti began about new information on Oswald. I was wondering Antti, if you have uncovered any more regarding this and or information concerning the hotel that Oswald and the Cubans stayed at?

Antti Hynonen Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) James, Sorry, no I haven't discovered anything in that regard really. It just seems a bit too good to be true that these Cuban boys would stay at the same hotel as Oswald did 3 years prior. I mean there are plenty of options. The Klaus kurki definitely was not the cheapest nor the most expensive, I would estimate that it was among the upper middle level to lower top level hotels. In the area, (called Kaivopuisto) where many of the embassies are located in Helsinki, there are no hotels in the immediate vicinity. The Klaus K, (the current name of it, it is no longer called the Klaus Kurki) is fairly close to the US embassy. In fact, off the top of my head I can only think of one hotel that is closer to the Embassy, but probably was also more expensive at the time, namely the Hotel Palace, built in time for the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki. Also the Russian Embassy is in the same general area as the US Embassy, a few blocks closer to the Klaus Kurki hotel than the US Embassy.

James Richards Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 Thanks, Antti. A question for you, and also for Jim Root if he happens to read this, have you ever come across the name Paul Matrone? James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Root Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 James I do not have a file on anyone by that name. Can you provide a context that he may appear within? Jim Root Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Root Hi Jim, He's an Agency man who may be the common denominator between the Cubans and Lee Oswald. I'm trying to get some background information which is proving most difficult.
