But you did not answer Fester Chugabrew’s question; “Is there positive evidence the projectiles differed in caliber? By that I mean is there a available for inspection today a projectile known to have pierced JFK that could not possibly have been fired through Oswald’s rifle? That would go a long way in confirming Donahue’s scenario”.
I am not a gun, ballistics or trajectory expert. The book I cited goes through a lot more scenarios than the single question that you are asking. For example, can the same manufactured bullet cause two completely different injuries when shot from the same gun? Could Oswald have fired two different bullets from the same gun that caused two different injuries? And so on. It is very thorough analysis.
The Warren Commission concluded:
(1) Oswald acted alone;
(2) Oswald fired 3 shots from the 6th floor of the library / book depository where he worked (3 spent shells found at the depository came from the same lot of full metal-jacketed 6.5 mm ammunition made by East Alton, Illinois-based Western Cartridge Co.);
(3) One shot missed;
(4) One shot hit JFK in the neck;
(5) One shot struck JFK in the head.
(6) Jack Ruby acted impulsively when he killed Ruby driven by temporary insanity.
Donahue concluded in part:
(7) there were two different bullets that hit JFK;
(8) bullets were fired from different guns;
(9) the guns were at different locations in the plaza area;
(A) bullet that went through JFK’s neck came from Oswald’s gun; (the 6.5 mm bullet fired from Oswald’s gun was found at the hospital after it dropped from Connelly’s thigh);
(B) the head shot bullet came from Secret Service gun accidentally triggered by Agent Hickey.
This book would make a great Christmas present and interesting reading for many here. It will probably answer all your questions you have, and others you haven’t thought yet about asking. Read it with an open mind, see if it makes sense to you. Note that Donahue wanted to believe the Warren Commission findings. He even hesitated to out Agent Hickey. It changed the way I see this event. To date, no one (especially the givernment) has factually refuted Donahue to date. His ballistics and trajectory analysis is quite strong, and refutes the record. We’ll all be dead and gone before Donahue gets some type of recognition. Hell, people are still studying Ane Lincoln’s assassination.
