Mr. JENNER. Did you and your brother Robert have discussions on this subject? Mr. PIC. No, sir; we never discussed these things. It was just a feeling it was always around. We knew these things without discussing them. Mr. JENNER. Did you live in an atmosphere in which your mother directly or indirectly indicated to you that she thought she had been unfairly dealt with in her life? Mr. PIC. Yes, sir. Mr. JENNER. You had that very definite impression? Mr. PIC. Yes, sir. Mr. JENNER. You had---- Mr. PIC. I did not have this impression. She related this to me, sir. I didn't feel she had it any tougher than a lot of people walking around. Mr. JENNER. That is what I am getting at, this was an impression she was seeking to create. Mr. PIC. That is right, sir. Mr. JENNER. You felt she did not have it any tougher. She was creating an impression that did not square with the facts? Mr. PIC. Yes, sir. Every time she met anyone she would remind them she was a widow with three children. Mr. JENNER. Do you have an opinion also as to whether this atmosphere in which Lee lived had an effect upon him and his personality? Mr. PIC. I am sure it did, sir. Also, Lee slept with my mother until I joined the service in 1950. This would make him approximately 10, well, almost 11 years old. Mr. JENNER. When you say slept with, you mean in the same bed? Mr. PIC. In the same bed, sir. Mr. JENNER. As far as you know or say when Lee came and stayed with you a short while in 1952 did he likewise sleep with your mother? Mr. PIC. No, sir; he did not. Mr. JENNER. He had reached a measure of independence by that time? Mr. PIC. Well, sir; when I left and went into the service there was a vacant bed in the house. Mr. JENNER. And at that time was that literally the first time that Lee had separate quarters for himself other than the period of time that Mr. Ekdahl lived with you and the period of time when your stepfather Lee Oswald was alive? Mr. PIC. Lee wasn't born when Lee Oswald was alive, sir. Mr. JENNER. That is right. Well, then, except for the time Mr. Ekdahl lived with you? Mr. PIC. That is true, sir. That would make him about 10-1/2 years old. Mr. JENNER. Up to the time he was 10-1/2 years old, why he roomed and slept with his mother in the same bed? Mr. PIC. I would like to interject here. Mr. JENNER. Yes, I am seeking something of the personality of your mother and the effect on you, had an effect on Robert, and probably a more material effect on Lee, is that correct?
