Report of the President's Commission on the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy

第八章

This fragment of Chapter VIII continues the chronological narrative of Lee Harvey Oswald’s activities during 1961–1962, supported by extensive citation footnotes (A13-674 through A13-1015). The chapter documents Oswald’s return from the Soviet Union to the United States with his wife Marina and their child, including their arrival in Texas, settlement in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, and Oswald’s efforts to obtain employment and establish himself. The cited evidence draws on Marina Oswald’s testimony (1 H and 5 H volumes), Commission Exhibits (notably CE 24, Oswald’s diary and personal notes; CE 1401 and CE 1403, biographical compilations; CE 935, 946, and 985, related correspondence and documents), and depositions from witnesses such as the De Mohrenschildts, the Fords, Marguerite and Robert Oswald, George Bouhe, the Mellers, Elena Hall, the Gregorys, the Rays, the Tobiases, and others in the émigré community. Key topics include Marina’s correspondence with her relatives in the USSR, her relationship with the De Mohrenschildts, the couple’s social interactions within the Russian-speaking community of Dallas, Lee Oswald’s employment attempts and brief work at a printing firm, his interest in the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, and the financial and personal difficulties leading up to the Oswalds’ departure for New Orleans in late March and April 1962.
