Did Jack Dougherty know how to count?

[Bill Chapman]

Even if Oswald weighed 131 lbs, what difference would it make if all Brennan saw at any one time was portions of a clothed man at a sharp oblique angle? 1/4 inch less width of the shoulders? One inch less width of the torso beneath a shirt? Does that head look malnourished?

Khaki would include a light rust color if the two shirts he is alleged to have worn were in sunlight.

The little prick, head-on, had the thick neck of a weight lifter*
Any observer would likely add a good deal of weight to his estimate

*Or, as Don DeLillo remarked 'a fullback'

Wrong!!..... Khaki is a YELLOW color....   Rust....Is a shade of RED.

[Walt Cakebread]

Modern "khaki" has many shades but is basically a muddled color that is not specifically a primary color.

    "a dull brownish-yellow color."

It was originally a term for uniforms ( "light brown fabric used primarily for military uniforms"), now referred to as "olive drab". Even if Brennan had that in mind when he referenced "khaki", there is the possibility that he could be describing a light rust color. Rust can be light reddish-brown (rust: "a reddish- or yellowish-brown flaky coating of iron oxide"). Brown itself often has red in it.

No, Khaki is NOT Olive Drab.....Stop making a fool of yourself..

1) He didn't get the memo.
2) Only one shot was fired.

2) Only one shot was fired.

We know for a fact that there was more than one shot fired  ( there are at least 5 known bullet strikes) ...BUT you're right it appears that Jack Dougherty  Heard just one explosion....  While the three stooges at the open fifth floor windows said they heard three..... And ONE of those explosions sounded different than the next two explosions....     The three stooges said that one of the explosions sounded like it was inside the building and dirt and cement fell on BRW's head.   

This would make sense..... Dougherty heard only the explosion that was inside the TSBD  or at an open window .....He would not have heard any explosions that were outside of the TSBD.....

The one shot he heard above the 5th floor could have been a shot by another Ex Marine , Malcolm Wallace who could have hit John Connally since Connally's wounds had more of a downward trajectory .

You might be right, Mike.....   I have no idea who the 165 to 175 pound man in his early thirties, who was dressed like a deputy sheriff in khaki clothing,  could have been....   But I'm sure that he was NOT carrying a Mannlicher carcano..... Because both Howard Brennan and Arnold Rowland described the rifle as a HIGH powered rifle or a hunting rifle....

Would the description provided by Howard Brennan fit Malcolm Wallace?.....
