It's funny how 5' 3.5" Silvia Duran testified that the Oswald she allegedly dealt with at the Cuban Consulate on 9/27/63 was "short," "blond," "blue-or-green-eyed," and "inelegantly dressed." We know, however, that real-deal Oswald was 5' 9" or 5' 9.5", brown-haired, hazel or grey-eyed, and that the photos of him that Duran said she stapled to his visa application forms in his presence show him wearing a white shirt, a dark tie, and a light-colored sweater vest similar (if not identical) to the one he was photographed wearing in the USSR and at a Thanksgiving get-together (sans Marguerite) in 1962.
In other words, real-deal Oswald in the photos was not "inelegantly dressed."
Consul Eusebio Azcue, who thought the Oswald he'd dealt with a day or two before the 27th was an impersonator, said that "Oswald" was blond-haired, skinny, about 35, very thin-faced, and was wearing a blue Prince of Wales suit with reddish highlights.
Which description matches that of suit-wearing KGB Colonel / "Third Secretary and Assistant Cultural Attache" Nikolai Leonov, mentor of Raul Castro and Che Guevara and supplier of weapons to revolutionaries in Latin America.
PS Duran said that the "Oswald" she dealt with had failed to bring photos of himself to the Cuban Consulate and had to go to a local photo shop and have some taken. Question: How could a seasoned international traveler like Oswald have forgotten to get them in the first place? Everybody knows that you have to provide passport-sized photos when you apply for a visa. D'oh!
