Before Lee Harvey Oswald became linked to the JFK assassination, he was a mediocre U.S. Marine assigned to a radar squadron in Japan.    Author Jack R. Swike, a former Marine Corps Intelligence Officer stationed in Japan, spent over two decades researching Oswald’s activities overseas, resulting in The Missing Chapter:  Lee Harvey Oswald in the Far East.   This book will not solve the JFK assassination, but it will debunk some of the myths about Oswald’s life during the Cold War era.  

For instance, few people know that Oswald’s Marine squadron was stationed near a top secret atomic bomb facility on the Atsugi Naval Air Field in Japan, which also housed U-2 spy planes.  

Using the most reliable sources available, plus interviews with people who knew or allegedly had ties to Oswald, Swike has compiled a book of historical significance in unraveling a chapter of Oswald’s life that had quite simply been overlooked – probably because researchers didn’t know where to look.   But Swike knew where to look, and was urged on by former CIA Counterintelligence Chief James Angleton, who felt the research in this book was too important to ignore.   Some of Angleton’s letters appear in this book, along with photos, military documents and information Swike obtained while stationed in Japan, resulting in even more questions about Oswald’s descent from Marine, to defector, to alleged assassin.
