Who were Lee's friends?

[Guest Mark Valenti]

Does anyone have information on the CAP members in this photo?

Thanks,

The man on the far left is David Ferrie. I recall some speculation about the man next to him in the dark glasses, but I don't recall the name.

As I recall John Armstrong answers some of these questions in H&L.

On p. 123 of Harvey and Lee, Armstrong lists Eagle Squadron (Moisant Airport) CAP members in the summer of 1955, under Ferrie's instruction, as "Fred O'Sullivan, George Boesch, John Irion, Melvin Coffin, Anthony Atzenhoffer, John Ciravolo, Ed Voebel, Joseph Thompson, Colin Hamer, Jerry Paradis, Chuck Francis, Roy McCoy, John Rondell,and others."

On p. 125, he says, "In the photograph are David Ferrie, Lee Oswald, John Ciravolo, Phillip Cousins, and 6 other CAP members."

Pure specualtion of course, but the kid to Oswalds right (with helmet) looks like a young William Seymour...
