Oswald's Soviet Sojourn and the Turn to Return
From a diary account, Lee Harvey Oswald describes his abrupt Soviet stay with citizenship offers, a Minsk radio factory job, and fractured romance. He battles disillusionment, seeks to extend residence rather than citizenship, and notes drab work and limited recreation before asking to return to the United States.
Oswalds Secret Marriage Claim and Alleged Payoffs
The source alleges the Oswalds wed in late April or early May with diary notes claiming April 31. It discusses a secret pole subsidizing him after Russians believed he was a native American communist, and questions payments for denunciation of the US in Moscow. Payments stopped during negotiations to return to the United States.
