Very impressive opinion, Jim--since you knew Lansdale so well.:banghead:
Greg...I have numerous friends, probably dozens, that I would recognize
immediately from a rear view. It is the total person, not just facial features;
height, weight, hair, posture and even habits or wearing apparrel all enter
into it...no IFFY to it at all. In fact in a Dealey Plaza photo I recognized a
friend that I had not seen since 1949. It was Bill Kirkpatrick, who had
been a classmate of mine at college. There was no mistaking him from a
3/4 rear view, about like the Lansdale view.

Hi Jack,
I think it is totally disingenuous for folks to claim that it is IMPOSSIBLE to recognize people with whom they have been intimately associated for over a decade! This is a no brainer.
Rather, they are claiming (in not so many words) that Prouty is a liar! That Krulak is a liar! Or, perhaps they are claiming that these two senior Pentagon Officials were so incompetent that they might "mistake" the identity of a man with whom they associated ON A DAILY BASIS!
That dog don't hunt...
