Do you want to ask any questions for Ana Zeiger re Oswald and time in USSR?

[Jim Hargrove]

Hi Jim, does JA know any thing about LHO's learning Russian in the USSR? Most foreigners would do at least a year sometimes a year and a half full time study at a language insisute before they would be trained in their technical specialty. This doesn't seem to be the case for Oswald but it seems strange he would have received no training at all whilst there.

I don't think JA has any info on Russian language training. Bear in mind, though, that LHO was working full time at the factory with Ana's father, spending time with his family in the apartment next to the Ziegers, and spending a number of evenings each week at the Ziegers, and so if he got any formal training, it would have been limited.
