Maybe "Flagperson"...

OK, here goes, I'll give the guy a "name"... Where was 'Flagman' standing in relation to the mailbox/trash box on the right hand (east?) side?

If it was meant to be a demonstration, then surely it would have been more overt?

Thanks Denis - I should have been clearer - I was wondering about photos of him from 1963.

Are any photos of James Markham available? Also, I've read that he was facing some "serious criminal charges" around the time of the assassination but cannot find information regarding these - is there any information available?

Did he die of cancer or radiation poisoning????

Warren Caster...

His right ear (our left as we look) is lower than his left ear...?

I always thought he'd just slung his raincoat over his shoulder.

Warren Caster...

Also, they only had copies, not originals...

If the master marksmen couldn't replicate LHO's alleged efforts from 30' elevation shooting at stationary targets, then who possibly could have done it?

Sorry Chris, I should have explained better but was rushing... Didn't the WC conclude that LHO fired the shots with the rifle resting on top of a box which was itself resting on the window sill? If so, I struggle to reconcile that with the position that Shaneyfelt is contorting himself into to replicate the shots; the way he's holding the rifle shows a very steep downward angle for the shots compared to what would be achievable if resting the rifle on the box (actually, I think if the rifle were resting on the box, the shots would fly right over the plaza!). Do the study take into account the angle of the rifle itself, not just the angle from the window sill (including the box)? Perhaps it does and I'm just missing it...apologies... As an aside, I wonder if the shots could be fired in the supposed time if firing from Shaneyfelt's position - it looks quite awkward to fire and reload etc.
