Mr. Chairman, there is some confusion respecting this Thanksgiving dinner.
Mr. Oswald.
Where John was stationed in the Air Force he called me from San Antonio stating that he would be able to take a leave during the period of Thanksgiving of November 1962 and that they would travel from San Antonio, Tex., to my home in Fort Worth, Tex. I wrote Lee and asked him would it be possible for him to join us at that time with his family.
