What is James Chaney Looking Back at?

[David Josephs]

Hello Lauren

Did you watch the interview with James Chaney?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0gcAQNunbM

In this interview, Chaney claims to look back over his left shoulder at JFK at the first shot. He then claims to look back over his left shoulder at JFK at the sound of the second shot, and sees JFK struck in the face.

As you are likely aware, the Zapruder film does not show Chaney anywhere near the right side of the limo, yet we are able to see Chaney beside the limo in Altgens 6, just as he claimed.

And, therein lies the problem.

Hi Bob...

Boy, your little "conclusion" about the CHANEY in McIntyre caused some real confusion... but you've hit on some very interesting points....

Have to disagree about Chaney not being near the right rear of the limo, that's EXACTLY where he was as you can see in NIX... the Altgens image , as posted, with a telphoto lens makes the depth of field much less discernable.
Yet as I illustrate, Chaney and partner look directly at the RR yard right after the shot to the head... from the front.

Curry claims it was Chaney riding along side him at the same time he broadcasts:

Mr. CURRY - I said what was that, was that a firecracker, or someone said this,
I don't recall whether it was me or someone else, and from the report I couldn't
tell whether it was coming from the railroad yard or whether it was coming from
behind but I said over the radio, I said, "Get someone up in the railroad yard
and check."

And then about this time, I believe it was motorcycle Officer
Chaney rode up beside of me and looking back in the rear view mirror I could see
some commotion in the President's car and after this there had been two more
reports, but these other two reports I could tell were coming behind instead of
from the railroad yards.

Am I reading this correctly? Is Curry claiming that after the FIRST REPORT Chaney guns up to him WHILE Curry looks in the rear view
and AFTER THIS he hears 2 more reports which came from "behind" INSTEAD of the RR yard (like the first one??)

Mr. HARGIS - I don't know whether it was the Secret Service car, and I
remembered seeing Officer Chaney. Chaney put his motor in first gear and
accelerated up to the front to tell them to get everything out of the way, that
he was coming through, and that is when the Presidential limousine shot off, and
I stopped and got off my motorcycle and ran to the right-hand side of the
street, behind the light pole.

Hargis here seems to be saying that BEFORE HILL REACHES THE LIMO and it accelerates away, CHANEY has already reached up to Curry...

Something is very wrong here...

===============

Ok... some images to not only show that there was no motorcycle filmed doing such a thing anywhere... but even the Queen Mary seems to jump around the films:

In the first... it appears to me that Chaney and Jackson know exactly where the shot(s) came from and can not possibly be by Curry's car at 12:30.

Next... the limo reaching and passing the overpass tunnel, while motocycles NEVER arrive from behind and the Queen Mary goes from nowhere to just behind them

And finally the limo et al emerging from the Overpass... if anything, the motorcycle on the LEFT of the limo (Martin or Hargis) and behind Curry's white lead car would be the one to pull forward...
Yet Hargis is very specific with his testimony

Notice the distance from Limo to Lead car in Altgens - the limo is RAPIDLY ACCELERATING toward the lead car which moves over...
How much faster does the Queen Mary need to go to be able to catch this racing limo, yet not be seen in any of the images
