Mr. Jenner. Did you get in touch with her upon your return to Fort Worth?
Mr. Oswald. No, sir; I did not. I would say this. I did attempt to call her before I left Fort Worth on this trip, and there was no answer at home.
Mr. Jenner. All right. Now what led us back along this trail was the conversation you had with your brother Lee when he was discharged from the Marines on September 11, 1959, and his statement to you that he had an early discharge because your mother had written a letter to the Red Cross.
Mr. Oswald. That is correct.
Mr. Jenner. And then you saw her in April, and that was the last time you saw her prior to seeing your brother on his discharge from the Marines?
Mr. Oswald. That is correct.
Mr. Jenner. Now——
Mr. Dulles. Could I ask one question there.
Do you know whether your brother stimulated this letter from your mother with regard to early discharge, or do you think she did this on her own, or don't you know?
Mr. Oswald. It is my understanding, sir, that she had originated the request to the Red Cross.
