Mr. Jenner. Would you describe this gentleman, please—his physical appearance?
Mr. McKenzie. If you recall.
Mr. Jenner. Yes, of course.
Mr. Oswald. To the best of my remembrance, I would describe this man to be average build, rather short, approximately 5-foot 9 or 5-foot 10, perhaps in his middle forties or early fifties. I do recall, sir; if I might further add, as the gentleman was leaving the house that night, I requested of him if it was possible for him to notify me when and if Marina's visa would be accepted or not, and he replied to me at that time that he could not do that. And I replied back to him that I guess I would know about it from the extent that if she arrived over here, it was approved.
Mr. Jenner. Have you now exhausted your recollection of this particular incident?
Mr. Oswald. Yes, sir; I have.
Mr. Dulles. Could I ask a question there?
Do you recall that at any time the State Department was in touch with you over this general period—that is, the period of your brother's stay in the Soviet Union, or his prospective return here?
Mr. Oswald. No, sir; at no time was I aware of any member of the State Department being in contact with me.
And I might further add that at this particular time, after the Immigration and Naturalization agent was there, including my prior testimony as to the contacts with the FBI Bureau, these were the only times prior to his arrival I was in contact with any Government agency.
