Many Hungarians sided with Hitler as the lesser evil.  At the end of the war the Red Army came from the east and Hungarians facing vengeance fled west.  The most active needed badly to defect to the west.  A couple of the Murrets were in Europe in the OSS, and the chances are about 99.9999% they had to have been the ones who spotted a dead ringer for Marguerite's little boy.  That was an immediate ticket into Allen Dulles's OSS twins project, thence to Angleton and Wisner in the CIA.

The boy must have done well learning English, they found a fake mother for him, and by 1947 the two were living in Benbrook, Texas near the real Oswalds-- learning how to be pretend Oswalds.  Brother Robert was in on it from the beginning, but not John Pic.   Which is why Robert never was nice to Rachel and June with birthdays or Christmas presents.  Also why John Pic was not allowed to LHO graveside services to notice Marguerite on TV was not Marguerite his mother.  John Pic got to see fake Hungarian Oswald for the first time in 9 years at the 1962 Thanksgiving in Fort Worth.  None of the Marguerites were there to avoid confusion.  It was Robert at home testing John Pic to see if he could spot the Hungarian was a different person.  Nope, he swallowed it hook, line, and sinker.  The only thing that puzzled him was that Lee used to call him brother but was now calling him half-brother.

Thanks for the overview, Chad. I first became interested in the double Oswald scenario when I read Richard Popkin's book. I think the double Oswalds and whatever happened in Mexico City are the keys to solving the Oswald mystery. I do not believe Lee Harvey Oswald ever went to Mexico City. I agree with Armstrong's assessment that Oswald never shot Tippitt or Kennedy. I never heard about the elevator theory before, but didn't the police discover a British rifle on top of the Texas Book Depository? There are a lot of intriguing things about the Armstrong book. The military intelligence photographer in Dallas that fateful day leads me to believe that Kennedy's murder was planned by operatives of multiple government agencies beyond the CIA. The double Oswald families theory is intriguing and I know that the FBI visited several elementary schools to track down Oswald's records, but it is mind bowing if true that two Oswalds were groomed since their childhood. LHO did have a cousin in the CIA, but I know little about the dobbleganger. I wish researchers would move beyond the CIA and FBI to see what they could uncover in the military and naval intelligence.
