MISSION ASSIGNMENTS
Returning from their late lunch Captain Scarburg stopped at Krista’s office, “Krissy I want you, Trey, Olive Marie, Gabby, Bud, Lou, Spook and Tinker to join me in this afternoon’s session in the conference room. With the exception of Trey, I believe they are all in the computer lab. Please ask them to, please come upstairs.”
At the podium, the Captain looked around the conference table. They were all now assembled - Krista, Trey, Olive Marie, Bud, Lou, Gabby, Forrest, Spook, Tinker, Lonnie Joe and Rocky.
“I’ve called you all together for this one last meeting, we need to finalize the preparations of our Dallas mission. At any time, if anyone wants to ask a question or make a suggestion, please jump in. This is not just my operation - it is OUR operation. Some of you, Krista, Spook and Tinker already have their assignments and have begun to assemble information, but there are crucial jobs for the rest of you.
“Let me bounce my ideas off of you and hear what you all think. I’ll start with the things I am personally familiar with - since I was there in Dallas. I am extremely interested in the connection between the Mafia bosses Linda Lou Dearmann told me about in Jack Ruby’s place and the assassination. There was Sam Giordino. He’s from Chicago. Next to Sam was Johnny Russolli out of Las Vegas. Linda said she believed he had something to do with the mob in Hollywood. Next, the guy at the table was Carlos Mancini. She believed she had heard he was from New Orleans. There was Angelo Marino from somewhere up north, Philadelphia she thought.
I purpose you, LJ and Rocky go back to Dallas and find out what you can about those gangsters and their connection with Jack Ruby.”
“Okay,” replied Lonnie Joe, “but Captain when do we arrive before or after the assassination?”
“LJ, I’m thinking before. If you both arrived after President Kennedy was killed, those guys would be long gone, and of course Jack Ruby would be in a jail cell.”
“Bud, I want you and Lou to travel along with them too, but once you get to Dallas turn over all the rocks on J. D. Tippit, the policeman Lee Harvey Oswald supposedly shot. Something seems fishy there too.”
Forrest jumped in at this time. “What’s my job Grandpa?”
“Forrest, I believe you should stay here and help Spook and Tinker.”
“What? No, Grandpa!! No, I want a part in the mission too!”
“Forrest, honestly I believe you could be more helpful here with Spook and Tinker.”
“I could check out Lyndon Johnson’s involvement. I’ve been researching everything I could find on President Johnson, I have found some information but it’s never been proven, that he had a meeting at an estate owned by a Dallas oilman, Clint Murdock. The Murdock mansion is located just on the outskirts of north Dallas. The meeting was the night before the assassination with a bunch of big shot political bigwigs. From what I have read he might have even been involved in planning the shooting of Kennedy. Please, let me go with you and look into it.”
“Forrest you do not know how much danger you are talking about? I don’t want to put you in that type of situation. If they had a hand in killing Kennedy, they would not think twice about killing you too!”
“Wait a minute!! If they killed me, then I wouldn’t be here today, right?”
“You forget Forrest – that meeting took place before the un-successful attempt on President Kennedy’s live, in another Parallel Universe. Yes, Forrest, you could have been killed in an alternate Parallel Universe.
“You’re right, Grandpa, I know you are always looking after our best interests, so I’ll stay here, and help Spook and Tinker. Yep, stay here and help Spook and Tinker. That’s what I’ll do. Help... Yeah I’ll help out.” Forrest said sarcastically, but the wheels inside his head were turning.
The Captain thought, what’s he up to? That was too easy. When he’s after something he doesn’t surrender that quickly!! Determined to give Forrest more thought later he said, “Okay, it is getting late and I know everyone has had enough for today. What about continuing this planning tomorrow? How about 9 a.m., is that good with everyone? Fine, then I’ll see you all tomorrow morning... have a good evening.”
The time was 5:20 p.m., Monday, December 5, 2012.
