  • Summary

  • When John F. Kennedy arrived in the Emergency Room of Parkland Memorial Hospital at 12:40 on the afternoon of his assassination, he had two visible wounds on his body. One of them was a small neat hole in the center of his throat. "It looked like an entrance wound," one of the surgeons who treated him told the press later that afternoon. Asked which direction the bullet had come from, he said: "It appeared to be coming at him." Two more of the emergency surgeons shared that view. But hadn't Kennedy been shot from behind, by Oswald, hunched over in his perch on the 6th floor of the Book Depository? If the throat wound was an entrance wound, the official story about the assassination was in deep trouble. As one reporter wrote at the time, "The question that suggests itself is, how could the President have been shot in the front from the back?"
