Mr. OSWALD. July of 1955.
Mr. JENNER. So you had a full 3 years in the Marines.
Mr. OSWALD. Yes, sir; that is correct.
Mr. JENNER. During that 3-year period, what contact did you have with
the members of your family, and with particular reference, if you can
give that first, with your brother Lee--his writing you, you writing
him?
Mr. OSWALD. Yes, sir; we were corresponding infrequently, I would
say--not very many letters between I and Lee direct when I was in the
service, especially the first part of my tour in the service.
In 1952, after traveling from Camp Pendleton, Calif., to Jacksonville,
Fla., I did have a 10-day leave. They were in New York City at that
time.
Mr. JENNER. This was then some time in 1953, I take it?
Mr. OSWALD. No, sir--1952.
Mr. JENNER. 1952?
