The switcheroo over to the SBT must have taken place almost over night, as it was not long after this that the WCR was released, wasn't it? Small wonder so many of the commissioners had doubts about the SBT, outside of the fact it was physically impossible.
As I recall the telling of the story (from Weisberg or Epstein..?..) it was that someone (after the FBI made their investigation) suddenly remembered Altgen's photo of the curb, Tague, and the accompanying newspaper article in the Dallas paper and forwarded it to (Rankin?) to let the WC know, at which point the SBT was contrived.
No, the SBT was being developed in the spring of '64, based on Kennedy and Connally being wounded too close together in the Z-film. They didn't start paying attention to Tague until the summer of '64.
I don't think any SS agents in the followup car would have blocked a shot from the rear, if it was fired from an upper floor. It might have been a problem for a Dal-Tex shooter on the third or fourth floor.
Anyone on this forum ever consider backing up their opinions with facts or mathematical data?
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.
