Posner says Oswald and Ferrie didn't know each other in the CAP and weren't in at the same time. FRONTLINE had a photo the other night that showed them together. CASE OPENED AGAIN.

Posner on Frontline

What did your investigation show about a possible link between David Ferrie and Oswald?

"I used to believe it was unlikely that Oswald and Ferrie ever had any contact at all. But when FRONTLINE discovered a photo of the two in the same group at a Civil Air Patrol gathering in 1955, the evidence shows the two were briefly acquainted with each other. The key question then becomes whether they revived any relationship when, in the summer of 1963, Oswald returned to New Orleans. This is the critical period, because it is only months before JFK's assassination.

But there is no credible evidence that the two encountered each other again during that 1963 summer."

Even assuming that the photo is authentic (a big if) and that those men are in fact Oswald and Ferrie (another big if), the fact that they served in the same civil air patrol unit years before the assassination does not prove (1) that they were anything more than casual acquaintances, as easily forgotten as most of your fellow students in a college math class; (2) that they maintained a friendship up until the time of the assassination; or (3) that they conspired to kill President Kennedy. What about the other guys in the picture? Were they part of the plot too? After all, their picture was taken with Oswald.

The two looked like they were real close.
