Mr. Oswald.

No, sir; I do not recall that it was.

Mr. Jenner.

You have no present recollection of that?

Mr. Oswald.

No, sir; I do not.

Mr. Jenner.

This is not--trying not to be repetitious but the author of this memorandum is highly desirous of inquiring of you as to whether the subject of personal identification of your brother was raised by Mr. Fain in any connection or in any aspect.

Mr. Dulles.

I don't understand that question, what do you mean by personal identification?

Mr. Jenner.

Some item of personal identification.

Mr. Mckenzie.

Marks identifying.

Mr. Dulles.

Wound or anything of that sort?

Mr. Jenner.

Yes.

Mr. Dulles.

Physical marks really.

Mr. Jenner.

Two classifications, physical marks how he could be identified; secondly any items of identification, such as registration cards, things of that nature. But first personal identification in the sense of physical properties. The person of your brother Lee.

Mr. Oswald.

I believe Mr. Fain did at that time inquire as to any scars that might appear, that I was aware of on Lee's body. The only scar that I was familiar with was the one over one ear, I do not recall which ear it was, where he had a mastoid operation performed at an earlier date.

Mr. Jenner.

That is his right ear, was it not?

Mr. Oswald.

I still don't know, sir. I don't recall.

Mr. Jenner.

I see.
In that connection, however, did Mr. Fain raise with you the subject that if anyone inquired of you as to any items of scars or other possible identification that you would in turn advise the FBI that such an inquiry had been made of you?

Mr. Oswald.

That is correct, sir, and I might say it was my further understanding that I did agree if anybody inquired about Lee in such a nature that other than perhaps newspaper reporters, who were properly identified to me and I did know, I would inform him or his office of this inquiry.

Mr. Jenner.

Your present recollection as to aspects of identification was limited, that is the only one you discussed with Mr. Fain was the fact that your brother had a mastoid operation on one of his ears.

Mr. Oswald.

That is correct, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

And you knew of no other scar or similar identification on his body?

Mr. Oswald.

That is correct, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Now, do you recall being again interviewed by Mr. Fain on September 18, 1961? This would be a couple of months, two or three months after your brother returned--no, he is still in Russia.

Mr. Dulles.

He is still in Russia.

Mr. Jenner.

Perhaps I may refresh your recollection an interview by Mr. Fain with you respecting your then current knowledge of your brother Lee's activities in Russia.

Mr. Oswald.

May I inquire, sir, was this a telephone conversation?

Mr. Jenner.

All that is reported to me in this memorandum is that Mr. Fain again interviewed you on September 18, 1961 with respect to your knowledge of your brother Lee's activities in Russia.

Mr. Oswald.

I do believe that he did, sir, and I believe this was over the telephone.

Mr. Jenner.

By way of a telephone call?

Mr. Oswald.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

You do not recall as of this time or approximately this time any personal interview that is as distinct from interview by telephone?

Mr. Oswald.

That is correct, sir.

Mr. Jenner.

Do you recall that during the course of that conversation you advised FBI agent Fain that your brother had been critical of the Russians.

Mr. Oswald.

This was in September 1961, sir?

Mr. Jenner.

Yes, sir.
