FORTY-FOUR years ago today, a clothing company owner named Abraham Zapruder filmed the assassination of John F. Kennedy in Dallas. And for 44 years, most people have presumed that his home movie captured the assassination in its entirety. This presumption has led to deep misunderstandings.

But what if Zapruder simply hadnt turned on his camera in time?

FWIW my suspect is smoking man from the sewer - which oddly enough he looked a lot like GB senior.

I think that it might.
In that book, almost every bit of time in Oswald's young lifespan is accounted for since his birth, through his time in the USMC, in Russia, short travels in Mexico, and period where he languished in dead end jobs in New Orleans and Dallas. You would have to satisfy us about when Oswald would have had time to join a complex conspiracy such as the one the conspiracists propose regarding the JFK assassination.
That's been the problem with the conspiracists since the first conspiracy books were ever written: Most theories depend on the willing reader ignoring that the main elements of the proposed conspiracy could not logically have happened.
If you still have a deep, lingering impression about the assassination going on forty-plus years, you should make some time and do research to arrive at the truth rather than being the type of person I mentioned in my first reply to you that simply throws up their hands and says "We'll never know...".
You are a very stubborn person. Someday perhaps you’ll learn to not try to change other people.
Oh, and the time frame is the same for everyone: 44 years this year, 45 years next...etc.
I think he learned to shoot before he was a Marine.
Good marksman can be trained but becoming a superb marksman is a lifelong pursuit.
Ten years before my first round too, thanks old timer.
