The same reason adventurers count their 14-ers, and runners count their marathons. Avid concert goers count their concerts in a year.
For many years I tracked my annual reading with a numerical goal. Nothing wrong with it!
Readers, read on!!

Why do readers track the number of books they've read? Does anyone count how many works of art they've seen? How many symphonies they've heard? How many plays watched?

I am an avid seeker of the truth. The more I have studied the Kennedy assassination(over 40 years), the less convinced I have become that Lee Harvey Oswald alone assassinated President Kennedy. There are simply too many unanswered questions surrounding the circumstances of his life, the people around him, and the remarkable series of coincidences that seem to follow him wherever he went.
One person who continues to raise questions for me is Priscilla Johnson McMillan. At the beginning of her career, she worked for Senator John F. Kennedy and saw him informally for several years thereafter. During the late 1950s, she served as reporter in Moscow for the North American Newspaper Alliance(Wikipedia).
Was she a CIA Spook? I can't say, but she did have CIA and Foreign Affairs ties. Was she simply a journalist with an unusual interest in Soviet affairs who happened to be in the right place at the right time? Perhaps. But when viewed in the context of the larger Oswald story, the coincidences are difficult for me to ignore.
McMillan just so happened to interview Lee Harvey Oswald in Moscow shortly after his defection in 1959. Years later, after the assassination, she developed a close friendship with Marina Oswald during one of the most traumatic periods of Marina's life. Marina was a young immigrant, grieving the loss of her husband, under intense government scrutiny, dependent on translators, and thrust into the center of the biggest story in the world. In that chaos, McMillan became a trusted voice and confidante.
Over time, Marina shared deeply personal information about her marriage, her family, and her life with Lee. Those conversations and years of cooperation ultimately became the foundation for Marina and Lee, one of the most influential books ever written about Oswald.
What I struggle with is whether that trust was ultimately honored. I believe McMillan was continuing the narrative of the angry lone nut, similar to Gerald Posner in the 90's.
Marina later expressed dissatisfaction with how she had been portrayed and how some of her statements had been used. As the years passed, she became increasingly skeptical of the official narrative and increasingly doubtful of the Warren Commission's conclusions. At times, she questioned whether Lee had acted alone and even whether he was guilty at all.
That evolution placed her increasingly at odds with the image of Oswald presented by McMillan. While McMillan largely portrayed Oswald as a troubled, self-radicalized man who assassinated President Kennedy, Marina's later views became far less certain and far more questioning.
What stands out to me is that McMillan spent decades helping shape the public's understanding of Oswald, largely through information Marina trusted her with. Yet the Marina Oswald of later years increasingly disagreed with many of the conclusions that emerged from that work.
I am not claiming Priscilla McMillan was part of a conspiracy. I am simply saying that her role in the Oswald story is far more significant than many people realize. She interviewed Oswald in Moscow, became one of Marina's closest confidantes after Dallas, moved in circles that included individuals connected to intelligence and foreign affairs, and ultimately helped create one of the most enduring portraits of Lee Harvey Oswald.
Maybe it was all coincidence. Maybe she was simply a talented writer who just happened to be present at several pivotal moments in history. But after years of studying this case, I have learned that whenever someone repeatedly appears at critical intersections of the story, it is worth asking questions. Oswald's life seems more like a Conspiracy of Coincidence rather than the story of a lone nut assassin.
