Oswald claimed to be on the first floor when President John F. Kennedy passed the building.
What's more.... Junior Jarman And Harold Norman testified that they entered the TSBD through the back door near the Domino room at about 12:26 / !2:27.... And Lee Oswald said that he saw them "come in" . How could he have known that they entered the building near the 1st floor lunchroom if he was not right there watching?
Yep
Now! Here's what Bookhout and Hosty had to say in their
joint interrogation report:
Oswald stated that he went to lunch at approximately noon and claimed he ate his lunch on the first floor in the lunch room; however he went to the second floor where the coca cola machine is located and obtained a bottle of coca cola for his lunch. Oswald claimed to be on the first floor when President John F. Kennedy passed the building.Question 1! Why no mention here of a police officer confronting Oswald in the second-floor lunchroom?
Question 2! Why no mention in Bookhout's later,
solo report of Oswald's all-important claim to have been on the first floor when President John F. Kennedy passed the building?
These questions----------along with a wise policy of
not ignoring the obvious import of the words 'for his lunch'----------will guide us to what really happened:
1. Oswald buys coke in second-floor lunchroom
2. Oswald goes downstairs (with coke) to eat his lunch
3. Oswald sees Jarman and Norman enter the building around 12:26
4. Oswald is still on the first floor at 12:30
5. Oswald never goes back up to the second-floor lunchroom
