Oliver Sawyer Hallett, 68, a retired captain in the Navy, was the commanding officer in charge of recruits at Great Lakes Naval Base in the early 1970s, then the largest naval training command in the country. A resident of Hinsdale for the last 10 years, he died Friday at home. ``He really cared about people,`` his daughter-in-law, Jackie Lustig, said. ``He was very intelligent and had integrity. A lot of people are going to remember him.`` Captain Oliver Hallett, USN was born 1 December 1923 in Denver, Colorado and died at Hinsdale, Illinois on 30 October 1992. Graduated from Phillips Academy and from the US Naval Academy. He served on various submarines, including Executive Officer on the USS Piper SS409 in 1957, and was the Commanding Officer of the USS TIRU SS416 from August 1961 through February 1963. Captain Hallett was a White House naval assistant in the terms of Presidents John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. He was duty officer in the Situation Room when President Kennedy was shot on 22 November 1963. He also served in diplomatic assignments in the former Soviet Union and in the Federal Republic of Germany. When he was at Great Lakes, his command included 300 officers and 15,000 recruits. He was there from 1972 until he retired in 1975. He was awarded the Legion of Merit. http://usstiru.org/history/co/Hallett.html Yes, he was indeed awarded the Legion of Merit, but is not included in relevant documents regarding same, as far as I can tell. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Recipients_of_the_Legion_of_Merit&pagefrom=Eyre%2C+Trulan+A%0ATrulan+A.+Eyre#mw-pages Greg, thanks for the backchannel. Hallet was in the Situation Room at the White House at the time of the assassination and conveys most of the Situation Room radio communications. He may be the one who conveys the facts that Oswald was arrested and had been to USSR. What are the odds that he would know Oswald? Here's Max, the Coincidence Theorist belittling this coincidence - p. 18 Max Holland– The Kennedy Assassination Tapes Unbeknownst to Commander Hallett, he is about to become amember of one of the world’s most exclusive clubs. Back in October 11959,Hallett and his wife were working for the U.S. mission in Moscow – Hallett asthe naval attaché, Joan as a receptionist – when a twenty-year old ex-Marinewalked in the door and loudly announced his intention to renounce his U.S.citizenship. The Halletts have never had a reason to remember the young manafter that, except that in some obnoxious way, the name and face of theex-Marine were unforgettable. 33. In about two hours Commander Hallett will becounted among the tiny number of people who can say they have met both John F.Kennedy and his accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. And Robert, have you read Nerve Center by Michael K. Bohn Bohn, who served as director of the Situation Room for thefirst President George Bush, has recruited numerous officials, including formerand current staff, to tell the colorful forty-year history of the SituationRoom. Created in the aftermath of the Bay of Pigs fiascoby advisers to President John Kennedy, presidents, cabinet members, andNational Security Council staff members have all come to depend on theSituation Room. Bohn also wrote a book on gambling and golf.

Bill, I dont know whether it's a typo or Holland's error (or just copying an incorrect datum in the obit), but the Moscow receptionist married to Oliver was Jean, not Joan, per John Newman's "Oswald & The CIA."

Thanks for the correction. Will make a note of that. Is she still alive? Got it. Thanks for the correction. Will make a note of that. Is she still alive? BK Sorry, Bill, but I don't know. Newman interviewed her and daughter Carolyn in '94, two years after Oliver's death. Carolyn witnessed Oswald at the US Embassy in Moscow as well, when he tried to renounce his citizenship. She was 12 in '59, so the odds are that she's still alive, and she remembered enough about Oswald in '94 for Newman to find her quotable. Given that she shared the Oswald "experience" in '59 in common with both her parents, they likely talked about it a fair bit in subsequent years. She'd probably be fairly well versed and might know things that otherwise may have died with her parents. Thanks RCD, That's hard to believe - the husband and wife team at the US Embassy - Navy Attache and receptionist have their 12 year old daughter with them - possibly in the same room, when Oswald announces his defection. The Navy attache later works at the White House Sit Room and tells AF1 about Oswald being the accused assassin, a guy he and his wife and daughter had known from Moscow? And since her dad worked at the White House the daughter probably met JFK too - so in answer to Max Holland's question as to how small the club is of those who know both JFK and his accused assassin we have - Priscilla Johnson McMillan, George and Jean DeMohrenschildt, Ollie Hasslett and his wife and daughter, and the list is getting longer. Can we add Snyder and his deputy and the guy from Harvard/Dumbarton Oaks? http://tapes.millercenter.virginia.edu/clips/1963_1122_salinger1 He was awarded the Legion of Merritt Read On......

Northwestern Univ., Evanston, IL, asst. prof. of Slavic languages, 1967--. He was a student in Minsk in 1961. Lived with aunt and uncle (mother's sister). Russians tried to recruit him then threw him out of Russia. He was interviewed in Copenhagen by CIA May 3 and 4, 1961. He went back to Russia 6 or 7 years later and received a phone call from the same Russian diplomat who had tried to recruit him in 1961 (just a "social call"). 1952-55, Kantor was an enlisted Marine. Had been to Cuba in the Carribean and to Yugoslavia. Marina was taking English at Univ of Mich in March 1965 at same time Kantor was lecturing there. CIA apparently wanted to keep Marina and Kantor apart and asked help from FBI. One thing that makes all of this a little more interesting than your average post is the somewhat humorous anecdotal comment John Newman [Oswald & The CIA] makes at the beginning of referenced bopok, when he mentions Mrs. Hallett's daughter, Carolyn, asking re LHO "Mommy, who was that weird man?" In that same section of the book Newman mentions someone else in that room in the U.S. Embassy......Ned Keenan, who actually sat down next to Oswald...... Of course, there was a Steve Keenan in Mexico City with a "Lee Oswald." And people, wonder why I am always hammering the genealogy angles........

Various authors interested in Lee Harvey Oswald have suggested that Oswald was a CIA source, asset, or operative at the time of his defection to the U.S.S.R. in October 1959. Researchers further suggest that Oswald either performed some sort of mission for the CIA, met with CIA personnel in the Soviet Union, or was debriefed by CIA personnel upon his return. The Review Board staff requested information and records from CIA and other agencies in an effort to pursue records that might shed light on such allegations. a. CIA operations in Moscow. The Review Board staff examined extensive CIA records concerning the history and operations of the CIA in or against the Soviet Union in the late 1950s and early to mid 1960s. The Review Board found no records that suggested that Oswald had ever worked for the CIA in any capacity, nor did any records suggest that Oswald's trip and defection to the Soviet Union served any intelligence purpose. The Review Board staff also interviewed the senior CIA officer in Moscow at the time of Oswald's arrival and the CIA Chief of Station present when Oswald departed the Soviet Union. Both individuals stated that they had no knowledge of Oswald prior to the assassination, and they did not believe that Oswald's trip and defection to the Soviet Union was orchestrated for any intelligence purpose. b. American Embassy personnel. Review Board staff interviewed, or informally spoke with, numerous individuals assigned to the American Embassy in Moscow during the time period 19591963. The clarity of individual memories of Oswald and/or the Moscow Embassy varied widely and few stories were consistent. One of the most interesting was the interview of Joan Hallett, the receptionist at the American Embassy and the first embassy person to meet Oswald. Hallett was the wife of Assistant Naval Attache Commander Oliver Hallett and a temporary receptionist during the summer American Exhibition at Sokolniki Park in Moscow. Hallett's recollections of Oswald's visit place him at the embassy before the end of the Exhibition on September 5, 1959. Available records show Oswald in the USSR no earlier than October 15, 1959. While Hallett's Department of State employment records document her recollection that she was not employed as a receptionist as late as October 31, 1959, the Review Board found no documentary evidence to explain the variation in dates. c. Search for American Embassy records. In an effort to account for the widely varying stories from the interviews of personnel assigned to the American Embassy in Moscow, the Review Board staff reviewed the Department of State post files for Moscow for the period 19591963, which are available to the public at NARA. The Department of State was not able to locate the visitors book for Moscow circa 1959 nor any list of visitors and tourists for late 1959....

The Review Board found no records that suggested that Oswald had ever worked for the CIA in any capacity, nor did any records suggest that Oswald's trip and defection to the Soviet Union served any intelligence purpose. The Review Board staff also interviewed the senior CIA officer in Moscow at the time of Oswald's arrival and the CIA Chief of Station present when Oswald departed the Soviet Union. Both individuals stated that they had no knowledge of Oswald prior to the assassination, and they did not believe that Oswald's trip and defection to the Soviet Union was orchestrated for any intelligence purpose. b. American Embassy personnel. Review Board staff interviewed, or informally spoke with, numerous individuals assigned to the American Embassy in Moscow during the time period 19591963. The clarity of individual memories of Oswald and/or the Moscow Embassy varied widely and few stories were consistent. One of the most interesting was the interview of Joan Hallett, the receptionist at the American Embassy and the first embassy person to meet Oswald. Hallett was the wife of Assistant Naval Attache Commander Oliver Hallett and a temporary receptionist during the summer American Exhibition at Sokolniki Park in Moscow. Hallett's recollections of Oswald's visit place him at the embassy before the end of the Exhibition on September 5, 1959. Available records show Oswald in the USSR no earlier than October 15, 1959. While Hallett's Department of State employment records document her recollection that she was not employed as a receptionist as late as October 31, 1959, the Review Board found no documentary evidence to explain the variation in dates. c. Search for American Embassy records. In an effort to account for the widely varying stories from the interviews of personnel assigned to the American Embassy in Moscow, the Review Board staff reviewed the Department of State post files for Moscow for the period 19591963, which are available to the public at NARA. The Department of State was not able to locate the visitors book for Moscow circa 1959 nor any list of visitors and tourists for late 1959....
