Mr. Stuckey.

Then the next time I see him is on the afternoon of August 21, Wednesday. I believe this was about 5:30.

Mr. Jenner.

Was this to be a preliminary session also?

Mr. Stuckey.

Yes--well, no; this was to be a live program. The Conversation Carte Blanche panel show is not to be prerecorded as the other one was.

Mr. Jenner.

I appreciate that, but I was just talking about your meeting with him on Wednesday afternoon, the 21st, at 5:30. The program went on at what time?

Mr. Stuckey.

At 6:05.

Mr. Jenner.

I see. It was not long before the program.

Mr. Stuckey.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

It was not a preliminary interview such as you had had, which is transcribed as Stuckey Exhibit No. 2?
Mr..STUCKEY. No; there were some comments of which I will tell you later.

Mr. Jenner.

All right.

Mr. Stuckey.

I would like to add this, this is very interesting, and gave a little bit of spice to this encounter. During that day, Wednesday, August 21, one of my news sources called me up and said, "I hear you are going to have Oswald on Carte Blanche." I said, "Yes, that is right." He said, ."We have some information about Mr. Oswald, the fact that he lived in Russia for 3 years."
He had omitted reference to this in the 37-minute previous interview, and in all of our conversations.

Mr. Jenner.

He had never mentioned that subject prior to that?

Mr. Stuckey.

As a matter of fact, he gives an account of his background here.

Mr. Jenner.

In Stuckey Exhibit No. 2?

Mr. Stuckey.

Right; in which he completely omits this, Would you like me to read it?

Mr. Jenner.

Yes; you have turned to a particular page?

Mr. Stuckey.

Yes; I will be reading from this. Here is my question.
"STUCKEY:"--

Mr. Jenner.

Maybe we can identify the page.

Mr. Stuckey.

This will be page 11.

Mr. Jenner.

Page 11 of Stuckey Exhibit No. 2.

Mr. Stuckey.

My question was:
"Mr. Oswald, I am curious about your personal background. If you could tell something about where you came from, your education and your career to date, it would be interesting.
"OSWALD :"--this is his reply--"I would be very happy to I was born in New Orleans in 1939. For a short length of time during my childhood I lived in Texas and New York. During my junior high school days I attended Beauregard Junior High School. I attended that school for 2 years. Then I went to Warren Eastern High School, and I attended that school for over a year. Then my family and I moved to Texas where we have many relatives, and I continued my schooling there. I entered the United States Marine Corps in 1956. I spent 3 years in the United States Marine Corps working my way up through the ranks to the position of buck sergeant, and I served honorably having been discharged. Then I went back to work in Texas and have recently arrived in New Orleans with my family, with my wife and my child."
There is his answer. He omits the 3 years in Russia by saying that, referring to the fact that, after leaving the Marine Corps he says he went to Texas and then to New Orleans. You will note in there he lied about his rank he achieved in the Marine Corps. Why, I don't know. As far as I know he was just a Pic.

Mr. Jenner.

He never rose any higher.

Mr. Stuckey.

And, as I recall, he did not go to Warren Eastern High School over a year.

Mr. Jenner.

You have become aware he attended Beauregard only 1 year rather than 2?

Mr. Stuckey.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

That he attended Warren Eastern about 6 weeks or 2 months.
