Well, I guess I responded and reacted to Hemming on a number of levels...
I spoke to him a bit as a former soldier [I had trained at Fort Bragg in the 1960s], and I spoke to him as a researcher and writer. At the time I was searching for a young American soldier of fortune who had been recruited by Frank 'Sturgis' to go to Cuba. This young man never returned to the U.S. after the Revolution, and later died (or was murdered) in Cuba. Hemming had met the young man but told me he could not recall anything about him after their meeting. After that we talked about Oswald and other matters. I found Hemming to be quite interesting and for the most part honest. But please keep in mind I was not there to evaluate him psychologically-- he had offered to help me and I had taken him up on his offer.
