New Delhi: At the centre of one of the 20th century's most shocking and traumatic events - the assassination of President John F. Kennedy - was a 24-year-old whose unusual life's journey stretched from New Orleans, New York City and Texas to the Soviet Union, from U.S. Marine to defector, from a temperamental man who had difficulty holding a job, to a figure infamous for being either a lone gunman who brought down a president, or part of a shadowy conspiracy.
For 50 years, Lee Harvey Oswald has remained the enigmatic figure at the center of the Kennedy assassination. Was he a lone gunman? A conspirator? A patsy?
Lee Harvey Oswald was born in New Orleans on October 18, 1939, two months after the death of his father, an insurance salesman.
