                                                27 October 1997


           MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

           FROM:
                      uhiet, Inrormation Management Branch
                      Office of Personnel Security

           SUBJECT:   OSWALD, LEE HARVEY
                       AIN: 0351164


                1.    The Office of Personnel Security was tasked on 31
           January 1997 by the Historical Review Group/Center for the Study
           of Intelligence(HRG/CSI), via the Directorate of
           Administration/Information Review Office, with researching pre
           assassination files on Lee Harvey Oswald. The tasking was
           generated by the John F. Kennedy Board's desire to review and
           declassify relevant material. The results of this review were
           forwarded to the HRG/CSI on 27 February 1997.

                2.    During the Information Management Branch's
           (IMB)research in response to the above tasking it was noted that
           Volume V of the Oswald files was not on the shelf where Volumes
           I-IV and VI-VII were located. A search of the entire area where
           the volumes had been maintained failed to locate Volume V. The
           IMB Files Section was subsequently charged with conducting an
           all out search for the missing volume. The search failed to find
           Volume V.

                 3.   In July 1997, the Oswald files were reviewed page by
           page prior to being turned over to HRG/CSI and another attempt
           was made to locate Volume V or to locate persons who might know
           what happened to it. Volume V was not located nor were any
           persons located who were knowledgeable of its status.

                 4.   During the complete review of the Oswald files no
           time gap was apparent and no one was located who could  recall
           ever seeing Volume V. This would suggest that either Volume V
           had been consolidated into other volumes or that Volume V  never
           existed, but that a numbering error resulted in what  should have
           been Volume V being labeled as Volume VI. The use of  Roman
           numerals on the cover of the volumes might have caused  this
           error to occur.
