Just my two cents. I was a photography student at the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale in 1986 and had an Instructer whose name escapes me at the moment - who was a White House Photographer for the Kennedy Administration. He was in the car directly behind Kennedy's shooting with his movie camera (if you have ever seen the footage of people running or that lady laying on the ground, he's the one who shot that), at the realization that something was happening he jumped from his chase car to film. He was a Navy photographer during WWII and Korea, and has seen combat.
He would not talk to us about specifics of that day other than to show us plenty of pic's and to indicate that what he experienced did not fit the official version.
Needles to say he left the White House staff shortly after.
Not sure this adds anything.

I'm thinking his name was Atkins - not sure unless I dig out my old records.

Your post definitely added something to the thread and I'm sure I join everyone in thanking you. There have been so many people who have come forward with statements conflicting with the Warren Report. I don't know how it could be believed that the voters would be so stupid as to not pay any attention to any of the actual witnesses. As the years have gone by, communication has gotten so much better. One only has to look at a thread such as this to know that we're not so accepting of what they (the government at the time) has tried to make us believe. Actually, when you think about it - the government had little regard for what we did/didn't believe at the time. They had made up their mind they were going to play the same old stunts they had gotten by with for years and that was that. If Texas had paid a bit more attention to what Johnson and his cronies were up to in Texas - the American public would never have been burdened with losing a popular president. If you ever see your friend, please thank him for his film contribution. He did more for the American public then he realizes.
