Question to David Josephs re: WCD 298
#1
Hi Dave

I have a question about the photo below:

[Image: FBIshotrecreationcd298-andactualmeasurem...299ae3.jpg]

I know the small photo in the inset is definitely from the FBI's Jan. 1964 presentation to the WC, designated WCD 298.

Who made the larger photo, with the distances from Zapruder and the SN marked in? The reason I ask is I spotted something peculiar. The trajectory lines, leading to the limo at all three positions, originate from the 7th floor of the TSBD. Of course, everyone knows Oswald was supposed to have been on the 6th floor.

Was this an honest mistake, or was someone attempting to raise the bullet trajectories a little?
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.

Can't help with your question, Bob, but I wonder what position the limo would have to have been in for Magic bullet, at the first shot, to have made the track it was supposed to have made. Looks to me as though the limo would have had to have been travelling towards the flagpole on the left of the photo.

That's my work Bob... The lines were only representative, the distances from the Document. A Google Earth enlargement using the scale at the bottom left copied and pasted for illustration.

That the location pinpointed by the FBI is the same as the one by the Secret Service although not shown due to the proximity of the "last shot" (CE884) is terribly revealing, no?

David,

CE884 Z161-Z313:

Station# 3+29.2-4+65.3=136.1ft

Elevation Change 7.5ft

136.1/7.5 = 18.14ft

100/18.14 = 5.51% street grade = 3.15 degree slope

chris

P.S. 3degree 9minutes = 3.15 degrees

Bob,

If you add 10ft to the existing height for the 7th floor it should look like this:

60.7ft(TSBD 6th floor ledge) + 10ft(7th floor ledge-) + 13.47ft(Street Elevation change at 3degrees)=84.17ft

A shot from the 7th floor window ledge at 307ft away lands at elevation 4+16.23 on a 3degree Elm St slope.

chris

P.S. I didn't create the slope entries. I'm just trying to show what may have been used in the initial investigations.
