Does this guy crossing Elm Street look like anybody we know of? (Hint: I thought he was one of the tramps!) And why is he all bundled up like that? Gotta be some kind of spook.

PHOTO REMOVED TO RECAPTURE SPACE

I flipped this photo of Hunt, horizontally. When I saw this other fellow - it made me think of the phony Oswald at the Mexican Embassy. Many along the route have been identified - I wonder if this guy's name known?

Hi

The man with the boy is "Charles Brehm" he was standing next to the Babushka lady during the motorcade.

QUOTE:

CHARLES F. BREHM, 1619 Kings Highway, was interviewed at his residence at which tme he furnished the following information:

He and his five-year-old son went to downtown Dallas to view the President's motorcade, and the parked their car in the Main-Houston Street area about 15 minutes before the motorcade was due to come down Main Street. He took a vantage point on the northwest corner of the intersection of Main and Houston Streets and from that point, he was able to watch the car in which the President and MRS. KENNEDY rode, maing a right turn from Main Street into Houston Street.

After the President's automobile had rounded the corner into Houston Street, he picked up his five-year-old son and ran across the grass from Main Street over to the downhill curved portion of Elm Street which leads from Houston Street to the Stemmons Expressway. He and his son stood right at the curb on the grass and saw the President's car take a wide swing as it turned left from Houston Street into Elm Street.

When the President's automobile was very close to him and he could see the President's face very well, the President was seated, but was leaning forward when he stiffened perceptibly at the same instant what appeared to be a rifle shot sounded. According to BREHM, the President seemed do to stiffen and come to a pause when another shot sounded and the President appeared to be badly hit in the head. BREHM said when the President was hit by the second shot, he could notice the President's hair fly up, and then roll over to his side, as Mrs. KENNEDY was apparently pulling him in that direction.

BREHM said that a third shot followed and that all three shots were relatively close together. BREHM stated that he was in military service and he has had experience with bolt-action rifles, and he expressed the opinion that the three shots were fired just about as quickly as an individual can maneuver a bolt-action rifle, take aim, and fire three shots.

BREHM stated he definitely knew the President had been shot and he recalled having seen blood on the President's face. He also stated that it seemed quite apparent to him that the shots came from one of two buildings back at the corner of Elm and Houston Streets.

Immediately after the third shot rang out, BREHM pushed his son down on the grass and for the moment was more concerned with the safety of his son who might be hit accidentally by any wild gunfire which might follow.

BREHM expressed his opinion that between the first and third shots, the President's car only seemed to move 10 or 12 feet. It seemed to him that the automobile almost came to a halt after the first shot, but of this he is not certain. After the third shot, the car in which the President was riding increased its speed and went under the freeway overpass and out of his sight.

As soon as the President's car went on its way out of sight, numerous reporters and police officers came running down the hill to the general area where he was standing and many of them gathered around him and began asking him questions. He answered questions of reporters and police officers to the best of his knowledge and recollection, after which he was escorted up to the Dallas police station where he was interviewed some more. He estimated that he was detained at the Police Department for a period of two hours before he was finally permitted to leave.

Not unlike the auto club, Mr. Brehm can be rated as (AAA)/Triple-A as an intelligence source.

Too bad that more have not paid attention to him.

Thanks, Robin.

"He also stated that it seemed quite apparent to him that the shots came from one of two buildings back at the corner of Elm and Houston Streets..."

He hit the dirt to avoid the shots - but, he should have also worried about being stampeded by all of the people running for the grassy knoll... 8^)

Here are some interesting facts I found in a search -

The location of Brehm's November 22, 1963 written Dallas police voluntary affidavit statement is unknown.

In the 1966 video documentary Rush to Judgment while speaking of the blood cloud and the bits of brain and bone matter that Brehm saw flying in the air when the President's head exploded, Brehm stated he was specifically attracted to watch a piece fly towards himself, "over in the area of the curb where I was standing." ... "It seemed to have come left, and back." ... "Sir, whatever it was that I saw did fall, both, in that direction, and, over into the curb there."

Charles Brehm was behind and to the President's left when the President's head first exploded.

On November 22, 1963 while still standing within Dealey Plaza, and only minutes after the assassination, Brehm was quoted by a reporter as saying that Brehm, "seemed to think the shots came from in front of, or, beside the President."

In his November 24, 1963 FBI statement and during the 1987 Showtime cable-tv mock trial, The Trial of Lee Harvey Oswald, Brehm testified that the shots came from either the Texas School Book Depository or the Dal-Tex building.

In 1988, Brehm told author Larry Sneed, "After the car passed the building coming toward us, I heard a . . . surprising noise, and (the President) reached with both hands up to the side of his throat and kind of stiffened out . . . And when he got down in the area just past me, the second shot hit which damaged, considerably damaged, the top of his head. . . . That car took off in an evasive motion . . . and was just beyond me when a third shot went off. The third shot really frightened me! It had a completely different sound to it because it had really passed me as anybody knows who has been in down under targets in the Army or been shot at like I had been many times. You know when a bullet passes over you, the cracking sound it makes, and that bullet had an absolute crack to it. I do believe that that (third) shot was wild. It didn't hit anybody. I don't think it could have hit anybody. But it was a frightening thing to me because here was one shot that hit him, obviously; here was another shot that destroyed his head, and what was the reason for that third shot? That third shot frightened me more than the other two, and I grabbed the boy and threw him on the ground because I didn't know if we were going to have a 'shoot-'em-up' in this area."

Just like many other supporting witnesses, Brehm stated he remembered hearing another shot after the President's head had already exploded.

Charles Brehm was not called to testify publicly in front of the Warren Commission, but he did supply a deposition.

Brehm thought the 2nd shot was the most damaging and another shot followed - originally thought shots originated from front or side - then changed to TSBD and Dal-Tex... Hmmmmm...

Ron,

If you go back to the image Robin posted at the corner of Main and Houston with the infamous Conein look-a-like, you can see this guy positioned behind the motorcycle cop. He looks quite tall given the perspectives. Hunt is not a big man by any stretch.

Some more food for thought.

What I wouldn't give for the Babushka Lady's footage..

Hi Nick.

Yes that footage would be gold, she was only a few feet away from the Limo when Kennedy's head exploded, also we would have a great view of the grassy knoll area.

I feel like people think that I find them to be an idiot when I correct them, but there's no K in my name. :D Nic, short for Nicole - however, I don't answer to Nicole, because everyone's called me Nic for quite a few years now. I figure, I'm more likely to notice someone mentioning my name if it's what I'm called by.

And yes, I think that footage might be able to solve a lot of unanswered questions. You'd think, if it showed nothing controversial, the Warrenatti would be jumping head over heels to get it out there.

Who are these guys?

I call these characters part of the SWEEP TEAM.

Note the shiny shoes.........

Shanet,

The guy in the lead is Robertson, flanked on his left by the same guy who was beside him at Main and Houston. The guy on the far left resembles Edwin Wilson.

James and Robin,

I don't think the guy crossing Elm and the guy at Main and Houston are the same person. The guy crossing Elm has a smaller face, and he is smaller than the black woman crossing Elm even with his bulky coat on. Granted, the woman is kind of hefty, but they would be about the same height if they were side by side.

I agree Ron.

Hi Nic.

Got it right that time. :D

James.

That Tony Izquierdo guy on the left in your image, my impression when i first saw him was that he looked like a railway worker in those clothes and cap. ?
