Don't be over impressed Gerry, all it means is Cakebread has been espousing BS longer than most people have even been born.
Again, while I disagree with Mr Pointing on many issues, we both try to work in the, uh, " reality based world".
Oswald appears to have created a bit of, "fiction", in applying for a hardship discharge. ( He promptly left town, instead of staying and supporting his mother.)
Why? No evidence available as to why he abruptly left for the USSR. Those who present theories, without any supporting evidence, involving Oswald as a secret agent? are not contributing anything .
