Definitely worth hating.
The fifteen to thirty second ads were annoying.
Now they are stuffing in 8-10 minute ads in ! Good God!
He does describe the head wound. Not in great detail.
Trauma did good. ABCD - Airway, Breathing Circulation, Disability.
Surely the ambulance crew had already identified the head wound?
14 minutes. Much better. I don’t recall any ads.
Sorry again!

"And the good colonel was a lousy shot accomplishing three that a number if trained professional marksmen using the same weapon couldn’t duplicate in the time or distance involved."
The video shows people can make those shots within six seconds. It prove people with similar skills as Oswald could make the shots. With minimum practice by the participants the shots in the time frame are possible. Whatever tests Oswald took while he was a Marine doesn't discount he could get better. Oswald left the marines in 1959. He shot Kennedy in 1963. He had four years to hone his rifle skills.
The video shows the shots are possible in the time frame of six seconds and someone with Oswald's skills is capable of making those shots.
If one accepts the premise that Oswald was the person who attempted to assassinate Edwin Walker in April 1963, he didn't hone them very much. Walker was a stationary target about 120 feet (40 yards) away and the shooter missed.
“The video shows the shots are possible in the time frame of six seconds and someone with Oswald’s skills is capable of making those shots.”
The video displayed that very few trained shooters could perform the task with the only one in the videos making it within a 6 second lapse was a weapons expert. We know that one of the major reasons the other trained shooters couldn’t perform the task was the weapon itself and how it was designed to fire with single shell, caulking and repositioning.
Oswald trained on an M1 carbine, a smaller semi-auto weapon that has little recoil and could be held into position easily between discharges. I owned one when I was younger now my son has it. It was an excellent short range deer rifle just barely legal in California by barrel length.
The maximum range of the Carcano was 2,000 metres and the maximum rate of fire was twelve rounds per minute.
That’s a shot about every 5.2 seconds. The math ain’t right for three shots. He had four years to hone his rifle skills to a weapon that professional shooters couldn’t get accomplished hitting a body and head in a moving car in 6 seconds going away from them. One shot, maybe two, but three? And two and three would be a scramble to get off let alone sight in at that distance. I think the pros got lucky. And additional “evidence” on pristine bullets, angles of fire, number of rounds that did damage to other parts of the car but remained pristine re-entering Connelly’s body at least twice, tends to fog the truth. Don’t buy it.
