I am a Patsy!"-- 69 (48) FOREWORD (1) The Warren Commission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, that he was not tied to any intelligence agency, and that none of his associates were tied to the assassination. Nevertheless, speculation continued to center about one of Oswald's associations : George de Mohrenschildt and de Mohrenschildt's background. The Warren Com- mission concluded about de -Mohrenschildt The Commission's investigation has developed no signs of subversive or disloyal conduct on the part of either of the de Mohrenschildts. Neither the FBI, CIA, nor any other wit- ness contacted by the Commission has provided any informa- tion linking the, de Mohrenschildts to subversive or extremist organizations. Nor has there been any evidence linking them in any way with the assassination of President Kennedy. (1) (2) Despite this disclaimer of any subversive or disloyal activity on the part of de Mohrenschildt by the Warren Commission, de Dfohrenschildt was rumored to have had ties with the intelligence communities of several countries.

  • News from the Front Line April 2013
    In Association with the CWGC News from the Front line April 2013 I am a bit of a technophobe albeit having trained as an Engineer during my time in the Royal Navy but as things have got smaller and my eyes a bit baggier I have erred away from modern technology. Blackberries are what I still collect in the Autumn to have with apples in a pie, Samsung I thought was a Chinese dumpling, Note Books, complete with graphite pencil were just that and Tom Tom was a black and white TV kids programme which if I recall correctly the theme tune was ‘A Walk in the Black Forest’. I succumbed recently and finally got the SATNAV version of the Tom Tom prior to a maiden voyage to Manchester to join the CWGC at an event. Fairly straightforward up but I did not fancy referring to my printed Google maps whilst driving in the city. I must say I was impressed. A little perturbed when it made a ‘bing bong’ sound like calling a steward on an aircraft but it was just telling me I was breaking the law having just gone over the speed limit. I had not sorted out the night time driving option to reduce the screen light (I left at 3 am) so found myself driving along the M40 at night with my sun glasses on as I could not be bothered to ‘faff’ around with the controls. I even beat the estimated time for arrival home by two minutes! I am now looking forward to using it to find ‘off the beaten track’ cemeteries once I sort out how to input Lat.

  • Lee Harvey Oswald - Another Look J
    LEE HARVEY OSWALD - ANOTHER LOOK J. Anderson Thomson, Joy Boissevain, Claire Aukofer On November 22, 1963, Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated President John F. Kennedy. The facts are indisputable, are supported by eyewitness testimony, and have been reconfirmed by the latest developments in forensic science. Yet many people refuse to accept that a pathetic loner with a mail order rifle destroyed Camelot.1 For over thirty years, a cottage industry has spawned conspiracy theories ranging from the barely plausible to the absurd. Thousands of books and articles have been written and scores of possible assassins have been identified by name. The culmination of this conspiratorial view was Oliver Stone’s cinematic paranoid vision, JFK, which idealized New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison’s megalomanic prosecutorial misconduct. Lost in all these theories is the assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. Essentially dismissed as inconsequential, Lee Harvey Oswald has been reduced to a stupid patsy, ironically probably one of the images he feared most. Oswald has been deprived of the place in history for which he so violently lunged that November day. Contributing to the doubts about Lee Harvey Oswald’s guilt was the Warren Commission’s decision to refrain from speculating about the assassin’s provocation or purpose. The country was given a murderer without motives. Although the Warren Commission considered many possible reasons for Oswald’s act—his presumed commitment to Marxism, personal grievance, a desire to change the structure of society, or simply to go down in history— none satisfactorily explained it.2 For the Warren Commission, the most outstanding conclusions were that Oswald was profoundly alienated from the world, and his life was characterized by isolation, frustration, and failure.

  • RESEARCH STUDIES SERIES CASE STUDIES in the USE of LAND-BASED AERIAL FORCES in MARITIME OPERATIONS, 1939-1990 by William S. Hana
    RESEARCH STUDIES SERIES CASE STUDIES IN THE USE OF LAND-BASED AERIAL FORCES IN MARITIME OPERATIONS, 1939-1990 By William S. Hanable Air Force History & Museums Program Washington, D.C. September 1998 PREFACE This is the fourth in a series of research studies—historical works that were not published for various reasons. Yet, the material contained therein was deemed to be of enduring value to Air Force members and scholars. These were minimally edited and printed in a limited edition to reach a small audience that may find them useful. We invite readers to provide feedback to the Air Force History and Museums Program. The author, contract historian William S. Hanable, president of Research North, based in Westport, Washington, completed the final draft manuscript two years ago, in December 1996. Through a series of case studies, spanning a period of more than fifty years, he examines in detail the development and employment of land-based air power in maritime operations. Although the emphasis is on World War II, modern examples of land-based air power, through the end of the Cold War, are also examined. His conclusions are that historically land-based air forces seldom received priority in operations against maritime targets, nor—despite their demonstrated achievements in the crucible of battle—have the land-based forces been "optimally organized, equipped, and trained for air-sea warfare when hostilities began." Nonetheless, over the period covered in this volume, land-based air power has clearly transformed the nature of naval warfare. The influence of that change in the years ahead remains to be seen.
