See here's my problem: The Warren Commission says that photo is Oswald in Minsk. If they're right, How does a Minsk photo of Oswald end up on a DOD ID issued before he went to Minsk? (BTW this is the photo at the top of the Google article on LHO. It also says Minsk.)
If they're wrong, and it's a photo of Oswald made at the time of his discharge, why would Oswald use that old 1959 photo in late 1962 (if he's the forger, and he's using the equipment at JCS)? He would certainly know that a) taking a photo of an older photo of a subject is a less convincing forgery than just taking a new photo of the subject, and b) re-using the exact same photo as on his military ID is an excellent way to get caught, and c) the Selective Service cards don't have photos.
If the SS card forger isn't Oswald, but someone else trying to frame him, if they have access to some or all of Oswald's records, and presumably have allies cunning and influential enough to slip this fake ID into Dallas PD or FBI evidence, why are they making so many elementary errors?
All this is leading me to wonder if the DoD ID card is a deliberately clumsy forgery. That would explain the bogus "postmark," the incorrect height, the anomalous photo of Oswald (with a USSR white mark on the shoulder), and the incorrect eye color. Is this all an attempt to frame the KGB?
