He was a soldier in uniform and was hit by acoustic impact of supersonic wave of shots. He hit ground. When shots over a policeman kicked him and wanted his camera. He said this cop had no hat and dirty fingerbsils. Another cop with gun and shotgun came up grass Hill crying and waving gun. So he handed over film. His testimony on YT and Spartacus website.

      Saw the James Earl Files testimony.

Also he said he shot JD Tippit in the diary. There was other desk officers, Capt Westbrook and a Sgt Gerald Hill who appeared to frame Oswald. Hill was seen in patrol car 207 driven by officer Valentine who visited the boarding house earlier that day

      @R Stefanie: The "rush" to the knoll actually occurred over a minute after the shots, and was triggered by a Dallas motorcycle policeman in the parade, Clyde Haygood. Officer Haygood was a block away when he heard the first of three shots. After racing to Elm Street, he stopped just pass the fallen Newman family, parked his cycle, and ran up to confer with a policemen he saw on the railbridge. Only then did people start running up after him, falsely thinking he was pursuing a culprit.

      The bullet from a high powered rifle travels faster than the speed of sound. It therefore makes a loud noise as the air claps back into the trail in the air ripped by the bullet. Much like the creation of thunder after lightening splits the air.
      When you are standing parallel to the line of fire, you will hear the crack perpendicular to your position.
      So, a high powered rifle shot fired down the length of Elm St. would sound like it was coming directly in front of or across from a spectator standing along the side of Elm.

      A flash bang was set off behind the grassy knoll. This caught the attention of a lot of people who immediately ran to this area. This allowed for your south knoll railroad bridge shooter to casually walk to the adjacent parking lot and drive away. The citizens and cops were met by a fake secret service agent showing a badge and gun. This fake agent was identified 12 years later as CIA agent Bernard Barker, when he was arrested as one of the Watergate burglars. Now you know!

    What is very interesting to me is the man in the light colored suit and hat with the overcoat draped over his right arm. He is being directed away from the picket fence area by the uniformed officer. Has this man ever been intentified? It seems like maybe he was coming from the direction of the area behind the fence or the concrete pergola. Malcom Summers, a witness said that imediately after the shooting he ran over to the grassy knoll area and encountered a man in a suit with a coat over his arm and he could see a gun under that coat. The man told him not to come up here he could get shot. Could this be the same man we see in this film? This man seems very suspicious to me. Has this man ever been seriously discussed as part of any assassination theory? If not, it should be. There have been claims by certain people to have encountered men in suits claiming to be SS agents, showing SS credentials that day on the grassy knoll. Maybe this man was an innocent spectator, but there is cause for reasonable doubt considering the circumstances. Just my opinion.

    Generally people don't run towards a shooter - it's possible that the people fleeing were trying to get out of the open public space and find some kind of shelter.

    All the evidence, be it photographic, ballistic, physical or forensic, firmly cancels out the possibility of any shots from the front e.g. the grassy knoll/picket fence. Even the political paranoid, Oliver Stone needed to fabricate his "puff of smoke.” When it came time to film the scene, a number of rifles were brought out, none of which emitted any smoke. Eventually, the special-effects team was brought in. Thus, when the film audience sees the "smoke behind the fence" scene, what they are seeing are the effects of a production assistant kneeling behind the fence, armed with a smoke machine. Pay no attention to the fool behind the making of the film "JFK." That puff of smoke may just as well have come from Oliver’s ass.

      Not an invention of Oliver Stone, or for that matter, his co-screenwriter Zachary Sklar. The "puff of smoke" contention is based on well-established, independent eyewitness testimony dating back literally to the day of the assassination. A significant number of separate, distinct witnesses unequivocally maintained that they heard gunshots and saw smoke emanate from the embankment/railroad yard area...and notably, from nowhere else.

    • @apointofinterest8574

      ​@@Rayoscope Your witnesses to the "puff of smoke" vision, have long been dismissed w/prejudice; their tales being 1)uncorroborated by the majority of other witnesses or 2)at odds with known associated facts or 3) rendered dubious by the changing of the details of their stories over time. This pertains specifically (though not exclusively) to Lee Bowers, Richard Calvin Dodd & James Leon Simmons.
      As Stone found out, much to his chagrin, a rifle does not produce smoke, at least that can be seen at any significant distance. Perhaps the added assassin packed an incendiary black-powder weapon from the Civil War era. Or just as likely, 'twas simply Puff the Magic Dragon.
      You're *_notably_* wrong on the ear-witness count as you are on the olfactory (V-8 engine fumes) one. 88% of the 179 witnesses who expressed an opinion said they heard 3 shots and 3 shots only. Of the largest group that identified a location, 28% said shot came from the TSBD. Only 4 witnesses, 2% of all the witnesses at Dealey, heard shots coming from the knoll or from more than one location.
