I was in the 4th grade on the playground when the teachers all came out and took us inside to tell us what had happened in November 1963. I was too young to have any oppinion on lone shooter or otherwise at that time. I I grew older I listened to all the conspiracies and established in my mind Oswald acted alone by the time I was 18. I was comfortable with that until a week or so ago. There was a special on the History Channel or one of the other such channels about the final days of JFK. I haven’t taken time to research one thing that was said that somehow I missed all these years so I don’t know if it is a fact. They said Oswald was an employee at the Dallas Book Depository. They also showed a map of the route from the Dallas Airport to where JFK was to speak. The route wound all over Dallas. If Oswald was an employee, how long had he worked there? How much advance notice was the public given that JFK was coming? Did they release a map of the route he would take in advance? Until I research these things I’ll maintain the thought that Oswald acted alone.
But it sure seems like a perfect storm if Oswald did work there and wanted to kill JFK and the parade conveniently went by the place he worked and he knew far enough in advance to be ready. If anyone knows whetehr what they presented is accurate I welcome your comments. Otherwise I’ll find the time to research it sooner or later.
I was a senior in high school at the time. Over the years since, the most intriguing theory I’ve heard is the one about the SS agent accidently firing the head shot with his AR-15 from the followup car. Even with that I’m still certain Oswald fired the first two shots from the book depository and meant to kill Kennedy, and most likely actually did.
