The Magic Tonsillectomy or Armstrong's Voodoo Science?

[LR Trotter]

My little short legged Rat Terrier, as brave as she is, need not jump off the porch and join any Big Dog fights. But, I have looked around a little searching for the date of Lee Harvey Oswald's Mastoidectomy, and other than a referencing of the year 1945, and his age being 6 years, I was unable to find a date. If it occured when he was age 6, of course that would mean on or after October 18, 1945. I believe that the date of the Tonsillectomy, as listed on the National Life & Accident Insurance Company life insurance application, was January 17, 1945. So I wonder, as I wander, if a possibility exists that a Mastoidectomy was misstated as a Tonsillectomy? Or possibly the Insurance Agent misunderstood what was said? A third possibility, at least to me, is maybe a "Tonsillitis Treatment" was either misstated or misunderstood as a "Tonsillectomy". We have a Mother, Marguerite Claverie Pic Oswald, applying for an insurance policy and dealing with an Insurance Agent wanting to sell the policy. And, I would think a mistake on the form is quite possible. On the other hand, maybe I'm missing something. I try to know what I know, but I try much harder to know what I don't know, due to volume.
That being said, I am convinced that Lee Harvey Oswald was impersonated, at least in the early 1960s, but I am on the fence to the degree. As previously stated, I have not read "Harvey and Lee", but I have seen a lot of the discussion and internet posted portions of the book.
