National Archives releases first batch of 2017 JFK documents
#19
The first couple of zip files have many thousands of documents covering stuff unrelated to Nosenko. I'll be pleased if we get more, broader material though.

From Mary Ferrell site, JMWave cable.

Page two has redacted name, 'Oleg is [redacted].

http://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?...2&tab=page

Complete version, 'Oleg is Jose Ramon Garcia Perez'.

Comment by John Newman -

Quote:The NARA release site has become a huge mess. We can only hope it can be cleaned up soon. Here is what I know. For a few who were lucky enough to start downloading at 8 AM eastern, they were able to get the first zip file on the former partially released docs. There are over 3000 docs in that zip. I was too late. For the newly released docs I was able to download 1 of 9, 2 of 9 and 4 of nine. I understand that this is true for many of my contacts.

Understand that although the XLS spreadsheets can be downloaded, they are of little use unless you can download the associated zip file with all of the PDFs. The information in the spreadsheets is minimal, and this is a big problem when one "document" is really 60 pages with forty documents in reality.

Once I get things rolling, with Alan Dale's help we will share with others, including CAPA, Lancer et al, to make available on the AARC website and my 2017 JFK site and others, the zip files or some other alternatives that work. In the absence of NARA fixing the situation quickly, this may be the best option we have.

Additional note re the Excel document summaries.

When you open the Excel document, you get the following info at the left hand side of the document

Documents listed
1
2
3
4


etc. This is just a count of the number of documents in the download.

The second column is the file name of the document, i.e

104-10162-10011
104-10162-10131
104-10162-10145
104-10162-10147


These are the references to the actual PDF's. When you're scrolling through the folder of PDF files, you can get a sense of where the document that you're after is by referring to the numbers as they get higher. These are also listed in a later 'Record Number' column. If you Google these numbers and add the word 'JFK' to the Google search you'll typically get the Mary Ferrell page linking to the censored document. Open the original in one browser and the Mary Ferrell page in another and you can sit and do a comparison.
