Green Beans, Peas and Inverted Carets

[Bill Brown]

What you said in your opening post.
"Then, at some later point in time (whether it be only minutes later or days later once he had the opportunity to go over his notes to make things more clear and accurate), Hosty added the inverted caret symbol along with "2 others".

How do you know he added them later?
It is not in "much darker ink."

As I said before Hosty, probably wouldn't have known what a caret was.

And if he did why would he mistakenly use it?

Sure it is.

You answered your own question just before you asked it.

No it isn't. You just want it to be.

You answered your own question just before you asked it.

So it's just your guess that he used it mistakenly?

Hosty's use of the ampersand logo (the symbol for the word "and")...




Hosty's use of the inverted caret...




Hosty's use of the inverted caret is very obviously NOT the same thing as his use of the ampersand logo.

This attempt at changing what FBI Agent Hosty wrote is quite similar to Hosty trying to change the words on DPD Detective Jack Revill's memo to Captain Ganaway ......Hosty acknowledges that he told Detective Revill everything that Revill wrote in the memo ...except.. the last paragraph...  Which says...

" Agent Hosty further stated that the Federal Bureau of Investigation was aware of the subject ( Oswald) and they had information that the subject ( Oswald) was capable of committing the assassination of President Kennedy."

Hosty denied saying that to Revill....  But he cannot explain why Revill would write that if he (Hosty ) hadn't said it.

Similarly the note about the rifle says what it says....."Mr Truly had rifle and two others"

It may help to add an adjective  to the truncated entry....  Mr Truly had (THIS) rifle and two others...or...Mr Truly had ( THE) rifle and two others......

So are we all agreeing if Oswald had actually said he had seen the Carcano and two others, he must have been right?

Do you think that Lee would have lied about something that could very easily be verified by asking other employees at the TSBD?    He would have been a complete idiot to lie about seeing the rifle....

Lee told Captain Fritz that he was in the lunchroom on the first floor when President Kennedy passed by the building. Lee said that he had observed Junior Jarman and Harold Norman ( he didn't know them by their names)  enter the back door of the TSBD while he was there on the first floor.   Jarman and Norman confirmed that they had in fact entered the first floor shipping room at the back door at about 12:27....
