Maybe he was just doing the Funky Chicken - ever think of that, huh, huh? It does seem to me that Jackie and Kellerman flinch at the same time, so I simply raise the question as to whether we can be sure that this is a reaction to being hit or possibly merely a reaction to a bullet whizzing past him. What we see JBC doing is pretty much exactly what he said he did, but for some reason he has been relegated to "the one person who had no idea what he was talking about."

A rather silly question. It is what I've come to expect from people who seem desperate to find an explanation for the JFKA other than the right one.

It's both [of Connally's] shoulders that raise, not one. They both rise simultaneously.

Exactly! And Connally's necktie does a little dance too:

I wonder if Oswald ever bothered to adjust his scope. At the ranges he fired at both in the Walker attempt and the JFKA, he didn't need competition level precision. A really good marksman probably wouldn't  even need the scope for such short ranges but for an average USMC marksman like Oswald, I can see how it would be helpful, even if not perfectly zeroed of the distance he was firing at. The fact the FBI determined the scope was aiming high indicates it had been zeroed for longer ranges. The scope was also aiming very slightly to the right. The WC theorized the high right aim of the scope might have aided Oswald because the movement of the limo would require Oswald to  lead his target and put his aim point high and to the right. We will never know if Oswald took all of this into account he aimed the rifle. Whether by skill or luck, Oswald did manage to put three of his shots on his intended target because his rifle was the one that fired the shots that struck JFK to the exclusion of all other firearms in the world.

One thing we will never know is what Oswald's aim point was. Was he aiming at the center of mass which would mean the headshot was high or was he aiming at the head which would make the backshot low. That's one of several questions Oswald never answered for us.

The evidence suggests that LHO did some substantial planning for the Walker attempt. Therefore I would fully expect that he had a pretty good estimate of the distance involved with the place that he planned to shoot from. LHO apparently paid extra money for the scope, so it seems to me that he planned to use it for the Walker attempt. With the above in mind, and Marina’s reports of LHO practicing with the rifle, I have to believe that he zeroed the scope for his estimated distance of the Walker attempt (~100’). And I would expect that the scope was still zeroed for that ~100’ distance on 11/22/63.

The iron sights are another story. They are fixed (non-adjustable) at 200-meters if I remember correctly. I will try to find out the exact distance that the iron sights are above the center of the bore and see if I can come up with a ballistics calculation of how far off they would have been at the various distances of the Walker attempt and the distances involved in Dealey Plaza.

Once again, the intrepid John Armstrong was on the case: Here is his Adele Edisen file in the John Armstrong Collection at Baylor. In early 1985, she did provide to the San Antonio FBI office a narrative of the events involving Rivera as well as her own CV with a list of her professional publications. San Antonio forwarded it on to the Director (yep - my good buddy William Webster!  ). So she was definitely public with this before Rivera had died.

Lance, when I talked with Adele for a combined 9 or 10 hours on the telephone over two weekend days in 2010, she was close to my current age and seemingly as sharp
as a tack. She impressed me so much I turned the phone over to my wife and they had an amiable chat.

She told me her son was an Army Colonel and that she had received help from a then FBI agent, presumably in that San Antonio office and that he managed to get her claims into
the inventory record of the HSCA, despite the investigation being closed at that point. Her attorney, in 1976, had written to the HSCA but had not included the name of his
client.

She shared the name of the, by 2010, former FBI agent. I checked it out, he described his former FBI career to assist in obtaining clients in his current business as a PI.
The same name was also the son of the Officer above Dr. Humes who had assigned Humes to perform the autopsy of JFK.
I kept the name to myself, but I regularly received PMs from Gary Mack, correcting details I posted on the Ed Forum, JFK Debate. He did not post publicly, he got other forum members to do it for him. He was unfamiliar with the name and background of that unusual FBI Agent, turned PI.

His father was RADM EDWARD C KENNEY

......
Navy Surgeon General Edward C. Kenney ordered two naval medical doctors, Commander James Humes and Commander J. Thornton Boswell, to conduct the autopsy.[14] Humes was selected as lead surgeon. Boswell called the decision to conduct the autopsy at Bethesda "stupid" and argued that it should instead be held at the specialized Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP) just five miles away. Although both had conducted autopsies, neither were trained or certified in forensic pathology.[15 ...

I'm not here to please ex-lawyers.
Why do you look at the shoulder raise in isolation with JBC's other movements. The facts that his right arm flipped upward at precisely the same moment JFK's arms started upward and that he was sitting in front of and slightly to JFK's left which put him directly in line with a bullet exiting JFK's throat should be enough to convince a person with common sense that they were hit by the same bullet.

I'll never understand why people want to complicate the JFKA when the answers are all so obvious. It's as if people don't want a clear answer.

Maybe he was just doing the Funky Chicken - ever think of that, huh, huh? It does seem to me that Jackie and Kellerman flinch at the same time, so I simply raise the question as to whether we can be sure that this is a reaction to being hit or possibly merely a reaction to a bullet whizzing past him.
