Jeff Carter pays tribute to an unjustly maligned figure who had a very important place in the universe of the John Kennedy assassination, especially in relation to JFK's intent to withdraw from Vietnam.

Jeff Carter continues our examination of what the ARRB, and especially Tim Wray, went out of their way to do to the late Fletcher Prouty. Including denying (falsely) that there were military supplements to Secret Service details. Is this why the Board could not keep its schedule as to declassifying all the JFK documents?

Part 1: Fletcher Prouty vs. the ARRB by James DiEugenio

Reader James Finn has clipped two valuable stories from the MSM that illustrate the point Fletcher Prouty was making about Kennedy’s withdrawal plan already impacting the war economy and that fact that JFK’s death turned that deceleration around in a hurry. As an intro, Jim DiEugenio reviews Prouty’s position and Edward Epstein’s attack on it.

Jim DiEugenio revisits the lost opportunity of Fletcher Prouty’s appearance before the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) by reviewing the initial formation and constitution of the board and then by examining the peculiar history of the board’s “112^th Military Intelligence Project.”
