This appears to be more unreacted versions as far as I have seen so far tonight...

DRAFT:HISTORY: LEE HARVEY OSWALD FIRST CAME TO CIA'S ATTENTION

Page 11 of this was Page Denied in previous releases but is included in this one...Some other redactions appear to be place names and one about Arthur Martin MI5 and Ian Maxwell and Harold Wilson being a Soviet agent is unredacted at the end

I've seen this now a number of times...  they refer to OSWALD as a Marine Sergeant 

By June 1962 his discharge was changed to dishonorable and he had gone from Pfc to Pvt and back down to Pfc before he left the marines.

Did the press call him a sergeant to make it sound more important...?  I'd have to search a bit though to find the other references...

Thanks for the heads up David.

this is second release in accordance with Biden's 12/15/22 order. Agencies had until May 1st to decide if they wanted to request further postponement. If they desired further postponement, they had until the end of May to work out disagreements with NARA. If they cant reach agreement, then the decision goes to the White House.
