Frank Sturgis autographed handwritten 7-page manuscript on the assassination of John F. Kennedy, written entirely in pencil within a spiral-bound notebook. The manuscript is signed by Sturgis on the opening page, which he titles “Prologue.” The text presents Sturgis’s personal narrative and conspiracy-focused interpretation of events surrounding the Kennedy assassination and its Cold War context.

The manuscript opens with Sturgis describing his post-1959 activities following his escape from Cuba, positioning himself as an investigator seeking evidence of what he believed to be the true forces behind Kennedy’s assassination. Throughout the text, Sturgis asserts the involvement of Soviet intelligence and Cuban leadership, specifically naming Nikita Khrushchev, Fidel Castro, and Raúl Castro, and repeatedly references the KGB and Cuban intelligence services.

Key sections outline Sturgis’s claims regarding Lee Harvey Oswald, including assertions that Oswald was trained by Soviet intelligence, connected to Cuban operatives, and intended to escape to Cuba following the assassination. Sturgis recounts Oswald’s alleged movements through Russia, Minsk, and Cuba, references Marina Oswald’s background and affiliations, and discusses Oswald’s time in the U.S. Marines with attention to physical measurements, medical incidents, and weapons handling.

The manuscript also includes Sturgis’s broader geopolitical interpretations, alleging that evidence was deliberately suppressed to avoid nuclear war with the Soviet Union and framing the assassination within a larger Cold War power struggle. The tone is deeply personal and ideological, blending autobiographical elements with intelligence-oriented speculation and conspiratorial conclusions. The final pages emphasize themes of betrayal, secrecy, and the moral consequences of global political maneuvering.

This manuscript represents a rare and unfiltered reflection from Sturgis; a personal handwritten account of his beliefs regarding one of the most debated events in American history.

Frank Sturgis (1924–1993) was a Cuban-American operative, soldier of fortune, and political activist best known for his role in the Watergate burglary, where he was one of the five men arrested inside the Democratic National Committee headquarters in June 1972. Beyond Watergate, Sturgis has long occupied a controversial place in American history due to his associations with anti-Castro operations, intelligence circles, and his later implication—though never proven—in various theories surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
