Oswald was a top notch expert marksman according to his Marine Corps marksmanship score cards

Which is funny, because the range NCOs and his battle buddies have repeatedly said he was one of the worst marksmen they've ever seen. And one of his qualification scores was within two points of being a no-go.

None of his score cards show poor marksmanship, in fact they all show very high scores. Again take off the tinfoil hat and accept reality. You’re continuing to fight a lost battle. I’m just a deer hunter but with a properly sighted rifle with a scope I, and most other deer hunters, could make those shots, let alone someone with professional Marine Corps training. Especially considering that the limousene was travelling at about 5mph and moving straight away from Oswald at the time of the fatal head shot. Sorry, not a real difficult shot. All Oswald had to do was aim one or two dots above the middle of Kennedy’s head and the the relative motion of Kennedy (straight away from Oswald) combined with the downward ballistic arc of a bullet travelling at approx 1200 fps adds up to the bullet and Kennedy’s head occupying the same space at the same time. In fact when one looks at the entrance wound at the rear occipital region of Kennedy’s head, it was just slightly under center in the vertical plane and slightly to the left in the horizontal plane (probably due to windage), of course all of this has to be measured taking into consideration relative position of Kennedy, slightly hunched over with arms locked at about the height of his throat and twisted slightly to the left. Also the exit wound is above his right eye and if one watches the slow motion frame by frame Zabruter film and the other one from ground level to Kennedy’s left one will see the brain matter and pieces of his skull exit from the front. This is really not rocket science it just takes one to acknowledge the actual physical, video and photographic evidence and then the truth shall set ye free once and for all.
