The one thing that stood out to me was Luther giving his recollection of hearing pistol fire then "within seconds" rifle fire. Said it sounded like Viet Nam. Frustrating thing was the interviewer did not press him for any detail, like "How many seconds? Five? Fifteen? Thirty?"

Upon a second listen...he states that the rifle fire commenced a "half second" after the pistol fire.

“Upon a second listen...he states that the rifle fire commenced a “half second” after the pistol fire.”

LOL. Better go listen to it again.

After the second volley of pistol shots he said he stood there in shock!

Then he went to the ground.

He said that about a second after going to the ground he heard ‘vietnam’.

1. It had to be several seconds from the time of the pistol shots to the ‘vietnam’.

2. When you are in ‘shock’ it is very hard to go back to that time and judge elapsed time.
