The Testimony of J.C. White ...Patrolman

[Richard Smith]

My guess is that you just keep guessing about stuff.
You can post scans of those Trask photos but the pictures posted already shows that there was no train as the motorcade passed through.

Again, what difference does it make?

Based on the information that I am aware of, one can only guess how fast the northbound train was travelling. So, we can only guess where that train was located when the shots were fired. The images that Jerry posted do not include the area where the train is located. Your image only shows the rear end of the caboose. But there definitely is a train.

I'll bet there was some secret service guys hanging on to that Cadillac that needed to change their underwear when they rolled into the hospital.
Another question...What difference did they make?

Heroic seeing those brave agents risk their lives standing on the narrow running board so they could stay with the President. They sure were brave professionals dedicated to public service. It was above and beyond the call of duty for the SS and Dallas Police that day.

Heroic? It seemed like they really had no choice. They were following rather than leading anything.
My criticism lies in the sad fact that a dead president was given more protection than we was when he was alive. 
The call of duty was to protect the president.
When did the Dallas police go above and beyond that? They failed at every turn.
Reading the caption..How could anyone possibly tell that the guy behind the driver looks like he is making the sign of the cross with his finger?



I believe that White made up the stuff about the freight train. Just like Kenneth Croy, Harry Olsen and W R Westbrook made up their testimony.
All was not truthful in the Dallas Police Dept.

Heroic seeing those brave agents risk their lives standing on the narrow running board so they could stay with the President. They gradually worked their way into stable positions. They sure were brave professionals dedicated to public service. It was above and beyond the call of duty for the SS and Dallas Police that day.

Too bad they were so inept (or malicious) in every other way.

[John Iacoletti]

There’s no less evidence for that than there is that he killed the president. Real evidence, not stories you make up to try to justify your bias.

It's ironic to criticize the secret service while defending JFK's assassin at all costs.  The security flaw was baked into driving the president in an open car on preannounced routes in a downtown city.  This was going to happen sooner or later.  Eventually a presidential motorcade was going to pass an angry nut with a gun somewhere.  Dallas just happened to be that place and Oswald was the nut.
