MUST READ: The Dallas Doctor's Warren Commission testimony.

[TruthIsAll]

All the doctors "noted" the "large occipital wound". They also agreed on the location of the throat wound, just as they were remarkably consistent on the location of the large head wound.

THE LARGE WOUND IN THE BACK OF PRESIDENT KENNEDY'S HEAD: MORE EVIDENCE OF A SHOT FROM THE FRONT

A key component of the lone-gunman theory of the Kennedy assassination is that there was no large wound in the back of President Kennedy's head. Why? Because this would indicate a shot from the front. Instead, relying on the disputed autopsy photos and x-rays, lone-gunman theorists argue that the large head wound was actually on the top and right side of the head above the right ear. They claim the occiput, i.e., the bone at the back of the skull, was not blasted and was not missing any bone.

Yet, witness after witness who saw President Kennedy's head, from doctors, to federal agents, to trained emergency room nurses, to medical technicians who assisted with the autopsy, said they saw a large wound in the rear portion of the skull. Some said it was mostly or solely in the occiput, while others said it was partly in the occiput and partly in the right rear section of the parietal bone. The difference between the two descriptions is slight, probably no more than half an inch to an inch at the most, and both place the wound in the rear part of the head, not above the right ear.

Several of the Dallas doctors said they saw cerebellar tissue extruding from the wound. This tissue is found only in the rear part of the brain, and it is easily distinguishable from other brain tissue. One of the doctors who saw cerebellar tissue in the large wound was a neurosurgeon who specified that he examined the wound.

Let us now examine some of the eyewitness statements that there was a large wound in the back of President Kennedy's head. These statements come from the Warren Commission's hearings and exhibits.

1. If this was an exit wound,

where was the entrance? Surely a front shot would have made an obvious wound. Some very good testimony by the Dallas doctors.

2. "Tangential."

As one of the Dallas Docs said at the press conf
immediately after the assassination... Tangential,
as in the bullet struck behind the ear (from the GK),
clipped the back of the head, tore a chunk of skull off as it
exploded, creating a single wound and single hole.
