If Oswald Was The Assassin, Did He Plan His Escape From The TSBD Very Well?

[Gerry Down]

It was the northern end of one of the long benches where Troy West worked/slept. Not that far from the elevators and clock.

Where was the clock in the TSBD?

Where was the clock in the TSBD?

It was on the pillar outside Shelley's office, facing the packing tables. Whoops, that was the phone. the clock was on the wall outside the small store room.

So facing west?

"Slept"?

West had a consistent routine of arriving to work 5 to 10 minutes early and thus was easy to work around.

Mr. BELIN - Do you remember what time you got to work that particular morning?
Mr. WEST - It was about 10 minutes to 8. I always be 5 or 10 minutes early.

And in addition at lunchtime on the 22nd West left the area and went in (to presumably the washroom) and washed his hands and face, and again if this was his daily routine this was also easily worked around.

Mr. BELIN - Then what did you do?
Mr. WEST - Well, I went in and washed my hands and face and then got ready to put my coffee on.

And as for the clock, Piper on the 22nd recalls.

I saw the President pass and heard some shots and looked at the clock there and saw it was 12:55PM.

Sorry Gerry, see my updated post and pic.....I was going from memory (stupidly). Yes facing west.

I don't think this storage room can be the storage room in between Shelleys office and the domino room because this room looks like it is in a corner on the photo. It does have heavy locking mechanisms on it though. Could this room be in the basement?

Unless Shelley could access the storage room from inside his office? Such a doorway doesn't appear on any floor plan that i know of though.

See number 13. I agree it does look some what strange given the floor plan
