"Down by the Stemmons sign".  LOL.

Holt and Jacob both describe walking about 50 yards towards the underpass
Simmons states they were about half way between the TSBD and the underpass
All consistent with a location somewhere near the Stemmons sign.

Try to have your facts straight before you criticise, it would make you appear less buffoonish.

No, the Stemmons sign was about 70 yards from the TSBD entrance, which was still way short of "half way between the TSBD and the underpass".

I always have my facts straight.  If you weren't so defensive and combative whenever you make unsupported truth claims, it would make you appear less buffoonish.  The people you always claim (without evidence) to be Holt, Jacob, and Simmons aren't even standing by the sign.  It just appears that way because of the perspective from Zapruder's position.

Do you have information to the contrary?

Yes I do John.
The Stemmons sign is barely 40 yards from the TSBD entrance.
You don't have to look too hard to find a plan of Dealey Plaza. Get on it.

I did exactly that, using Don Roberdeau's map.  That's where I got 70 yards.

John I just performed a quick check, and It looks like the sign was about 42 yards from the entrance to the TSBD.
