Russ Holmes Work File

Russell B. Holmes was a CIA archivist who maintained an extensive collection of CIA documents on the Kennedy assassination. These documents contain a wide range of materials spanning a time period beginning before the assassination and extending into the 1990s. While a variety of subjects are represented, there is particular focus on Oswald's trip to Mexico City and the Garrison investigation of the late 1960s. The Russ Holmes Work File was declassified in the late 1990s.

1.	Type one or more words into a search box and hit Enter or click the Search button.
2.	If you type multiple words, search results includes pages which feature any of the words (pages with multiple and rare words are ranked higher).
3.	Use double-quotes to enclose phrases (consecutive words), e.g. "Jack Ruby".
4.	Use "and" to find pages containing both word/phrase A and word/phrase B, e.g.: mccone and "maurice bishop".
5.	Note that small words (the, by, on, etc.) are ignored.
6.	Searches are not case-sensitive (e.g., KENNEDY is the same as kennedy).
