There is a kid in Altgens 6 on the right. He is seen again running in Darnell or/and Couch.

Hi Denis

The only  women i remember seeing with a child about 4yo
is the waving women in Towner nursing the child who was wearing a "red" cap

They can also be seen in Altgens 6 near the TSBD steps.

But the wound on the skin Connally’s right armpit was elliptical, not bullet shaped. The bullet was a cylinder rounded at one end. And how did a bullet striking sideways make a small tunnelling wound?

The entrance wound was elongated. That is an indication the bullet was tumbling as it entered JBC's back. As for you other question, you should ask an expert on wound ballistics which I am not.

Choose one: "In" or "Near"

This is the correct sequence: Steve Barber posted the YouTube video but had no clue of the name. Bill Brown said he heard the name Williams. I searched for a female Williams who would have given an affidavit. I found one Mary Williams who did. I googled her name and found a photo of her in the link below.

Correction...

This is the correct sequence: Steve Barber posted the YouTube video but had no clue of the name. Bill Brown said he heard the name Williams. Bill Brown first gave the name Mary Williams.  Then, based off of that, Denis Morissette searched for her affidavit. Denis Morrissette then googled her name (because Bill Brown gave it) and found a photo of her in the link below.

I spent a decent little amount of time on this.

I don't care either way, but at least get it right.

Time to search the images.  ???

JFK Assassination Plus General Discussion And Debate / Re: Gov. John Connally Was Not Struck By a Tumbling Bullet

I already addressed this, but here it is again.

Thanks Ben, I looked into this and researched what happens to fabric when acted upon with a bullet because at face value something didn't add up, for a start the hole appears to be square and the dimensions of the hole exceed the size of a 6.5 mm Carcano bullet and on either side of the hole, the fabric was excessively ragged.

Then as they say in the classics, corroborated evidence is some of the best evidence, so I went back to Dr. Gregory's testimony where he says that the bullet entrance was linear and perhaps 3/4 of an inch long and looking closely at the higher quality image of Connally's shirt it became immediately apparent that the shredding started at a point which corresponds with the approximate size of the actual wound, now we are getting somewhere.
So next I investigated the properties of fabric after a bullet passed through and as I posted, in every example the hole was far less than the diameter of the bullet and in each case we see the familiar shredding as seen on Connally shirt. Ergo the bullet struck Connally's shirt while the bullet was yawing.

Mr. SPECTER - What did the wound of entry look like, Doctor?
Dr. GREGORY - It appeared to me that the wound of entry was sort of a linear wound, perhaps three-quarters of an inch in length with a rounded central portion. Whereas, the wound of exit was rather larger than this, perhaps an inch and a half across.











One fact to add is that CE399 was flattened on one side which indicates that after
CE399 enters Connally at an angle at a relatively high speed, it smashed through his ribs side on which resulted in only one side being flattened!

Her name is Mary Lea Williams.

I found this video and posted this video on my Facebook on Sunday, and was shocked to see the full interview of this woman within it. She has a very brief spot in the documentary "Four Days in November, from 1964.
Although the film crew mentioned her name as "Mrs___", the microphone didnt capture her ful lastl name, and Bill Brown took the time to figure out the portion of her last name as it appears.
He then responded to my FB post , and posted her affidavit as published in the 26 volumes of the WR. She worked at the TSBD. My first thought was that she was the woman standing with Doris Mumford near the lamppost as seen in the Z film and Bronson photo.  According to her, though, she was standing with 4 other women who worked at the TSBD, and a 4 year old child of one of the women.  Warren Commission exhibit 1381 is her affidavit.

Miss Williams appears at 1:06 into the video.

It’s been a good week. First I found the name of the mysterious Japanese reporter who is seen everywhere on the assassination weekend. The name was discovered by Dale Myers last year. Now this previously unknown Dealey Plaza witness. This appears to be AP footage. There were several AP photographers with still-photo and moving-picture cameras, but so few images have been published. There must hundreds of unpublished AP photos and films.
