I can just imagine the conversation between LBJ and Connolly when he told him he couldn't move him, 'don't worry they're professionals its a turkey shoot you'll be fine the shooters are rear and right can't miss' etc, amazing stuff. I also think his stetson might have been a way of identifying him as the one not to be shot, though I don't know if he always had that on such trips.
"My God! They're going to kill us all!" whereas I might be inclined to say "Holy sh*t! What the f*ck was that??!!"
Yes, he did look a wee bit sour faced that day, didn't he.
Mr. HILL. The right rear portion of his head was missing. It was lying in the rear seat of the car. His brain was exposed. There was blood and bits of brain all over the entire rear portion of the car. Mrs. Kennedy was completely covered with blood. There was so much blood you could not tell if there had been any other wound or not, except for the one large gaping wound in the right rear portion of the head.
