   This is what you asked. Whether it is a 30 ft shot or a 100 ft shot, a "spotter" has the shooter's 6.

Preposterous. A spotter would have no useful purpose on such a short range shot. One of the things a spotter does is help with the calculations for factors such as range and windage. Completely negligible at such a short distance. Another important function is looking for counter snipers. Hence the term "spotter". A sniper on the GK would know he would be subject to return fire from the protection detail once he opened fire, but he wouldn't need a spotter to know those people were there.

Royell Storing:

  10-4, Fife. Over and Out.

Okay, Festus.

John Corbett:
Isn't it amazing that Oswald managed to shoot JFK twice without the aid of a spotter.
