“I have a JFK assassination eye witness story that you’ll find interesting.
“In November of 2013 Dr. Don Curtis spoke at The Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum in Canyon, Texas about his assisting in the emergency room at Parkland when Kennedy was brought in. Dr. Curtis mentioned that he became convinced of a conspiracy years later after seeing that Kennedy’s wounds in autopsy photos did not match what he had seen in person.
“I found out that Dr. Curtis lives in the same city (Amarillo, Texas) as I do, obtained his address, and wrote him a letter asking how the wounds he saw at Parkland compare to the ones seen in the Zapruder film–specifically the large, gaping one in Kennedy’s right front temple. To avoid any confusion, I also sent an enlarged color printout of Z-frame 337.
Dr. Curtis wrote back the following:
