Is Jim DiEugenio correct about Oswalds rifle?

Still waiting for Post Office logistics re: Dallas to Chicago in 1963.

Yep.  Do you see the name "Alek" on the money order that was found in Virginia?

What I see, on the document I provided, is the name 'A. Hidell' (aka Alek Hidell), which is fertile JFK assassination lore, ripe for a bit of good-natured spoofing. Which I have provided.

Wait, how the h*ll do you know that the "A" on the money order stands for Alek?

The question again?---    A difficult question as one would have to be really super clairvoyant to decipher such primordial motivations.
If a what?....some blunder? was impossible? Why impossible?
That question threw me David. I am still looking at that 24 hour claim stuff...because I have never heard it before. What paperwork reveals that?
Also....I never understood the logic of ordering a firearm using an alias that could be directly linked back to Oswald...That never made any sense.

It makes sense if you know that the rifle was purchased as a throw down rifle at General Walker's.   Lee and George wanted the rifle to be found by the police after the hoax "attempt" to shoot Walker.   But they didn't want it found until Lee was out of the country and on his way to Cuba.
