Episode 104  is the fifth episode in season two of JFK The Enduring Secret.  We begin our wander this season with an in depth review of Lee Harvey Oswald, the principal character in the JFK assassination   Episode 104 is a story tell and focuses on Oswald's time in the marine corps from his entrance in California, his basic training in various locations, his time in Japan, the Phillipines, Taiwan and his return to California.   Beginning with  episode 102, we   provide a general overview of Oswald's early years and family life and his time in New York. We then  cover his entry into the marines in this episode and in the next few episodes  his eventual defection to Russia and finally his return home and the fateful last year and a half of his life that led to  his infamy as the lone gunman charged in President Kennedy's assassination. Join us for the whole series of episodes about the fantastic goings on that encompass this part of the JFK story.  

 Our episodes have now begun  to explore  an array of matters that  dive into a deeper  darkness  related to what  went on that day in Dallas and in the  period before and after the assassination.  Matters   that possibly point  to a  wider  and more sinister  plot to kill the president and  that clearly call into question the theory that there was a  lone assassin.   Complex cases without  an eyewitness that can actually identify the shooter make the forensic and circumstantial evidence that much more important.  Ironically, problems abound with much of the evidence in this case. Evidence that is complex, incomplete and sometimes conflicting. 

Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. Stay tuned as there are many more episodes to come!
