| 0:18.4 | This is John Bachelor, conversation with my good friend Paul Gregory of the Hoover Institution for his book, The Oswald, the story of his friendship to Lee, Harvey Oswald and Marina Oswald in Dallas, Fort Worth in 1962 before the assassination of John Kennedy. And here Paul tells the story of Lee Harvey Oswald puffing himself up as an assassin, not on |
| 0:27.6 | Kennedy, but on a man named General Edron Walker, who in that time period was seen as a right-winger associated |
| 0:37.4 | with the John Birch Society. |
