(55,745 posts)Thus spoke Richard Helms, as quoted in the Washington Post, when asked about Oswald after his 1978 testimony to the HSCA.
Among the officers in the know about the thoroughly obscure Lee Oswald when President Kennedy was preparing for his trip to Dallas:
Tom Karamessines, Helmss trusted deputy;
Bill Hood, the urbane chief of CIA operations in the Western Hemisphere and a close friend of Angletons;
Jane Roman, a loyal senior aide to Angleton;
David Phillips, a charismatic protege of Helms and chief of anti-Castro operations outside of the United States;
John Whitten (aka John Scelso), an overbearing senior desk officer for Mexican operations;
Win Scott, the impressive Mexico City station chief;
and Anne Goodpasture, Scotts canny assistant.
