Mr. SPECTER. We have heretofore, may the record show the deposition
covered much the same ground with Dr. Shaw, but the diagrams used now
are new diagrams which will have to be remarked in accordance with your
recollection.
Dr. SHAW. Yes. Because I would have to place--they are showing here the
angle.
Mr. DULLES. Is this all on the record?
Mr. SPECTER. It should be.
Dr. SHAW. We are showing on this angle, the cartilage angle which it
makes at the end of the sternum.
Mr. SPECTER. That is an inverted =V= which appears in front of the body?
Dr. SHAW. Now the wound was above that. They have shown it below that
point so the wound would have to be placed here as far as the point is
concerned.
Mr. SPECTER. Would you draw on that diagram a more accurate depiction
of where the wound of exit occurred?
Dr. SHAW. Do you want me to initial this?
Mr. SPECTER. Yes; if you please, Dr. Shaw.
I hand you another body diagram marked Commission Exhibit 680 and I
will ask you if that accurately depicts the angle of decline as the
bullet passed through Governor Connally?
Dr. SHAW. I think the declination of this line is a little too sharply
downward. I would place it about 5° off that line.
Mr. SPECTER. Will you redraw the line then, Dr. Shaw, and initial it,
indicating the more accurate angle?
Dr. SHAW. The reason I state this is that as they have shown this, it
would place the wound of exit a little too far below the nipple. Also
it would, since the bullet followed the line of declination of the
fifth rib, it would make the ribs placed in a too slanting position.
Mr. SPECTER. What operative procedures did you employ in caring for the
wound of the chest, Dr. Shaw.
Dr. SHAW. The first measure was to excise the edges of the wound of
exit in an elliptical fashion, and then this incision was carried in a
curved incision along the lateral portion of the right chest up toward
the right axilla in order to place the skin incision lower than the
actual path of the bullet through the chest wall.
After this incision had been carried down to the level of the muscles
attached to the rib cage, all of the damaged muscle which was chiefly
the serratus anterior muscle which digitates along the fifth rib at
this position, was cleaned away, cut away with sharp dissection.
As soon as--of course, this incision had been made, the opening through
the parietal pleura, which is the lining of the inside of the chest was
very obvious. It was necessary to trim away several small fragments
of the rib which were still hanging to tags of periosteum, the lining
of the rib, and the ragged ends of the rib were smoothed off with a
rongeur.
Mr. SPECTER. What damage had been inflicted upon a rib, if any, Dr.
Shaw?
Dr. SHAW. About 10 centimeters of the fifth rib starting at the, about
the mid-axillary line and going to the anterior axillary line, as we
describe it, or that would be the midline at the armpit going to the
anterior lateral portion of the chest had been stripped away by the
missile.
Mr. SPECTER. What is the texture of the rib at the point where the
missile struck?
Dr. SHAW. The texture of the rib here is not of great density. The
cortex of the rib in the lateral portions of our ribs, is thin with the
so-called cancellus portion of the rib being very spongy, offering very
little resistance to pressure or to fracturing.
Mr. SPECTER. What effect, if any, would the striking of that rib have
had to the trajectory of the bullet?
Dr. SHAW. It could have had a slight, caused a slight deflection of the
rib, but probably not a great deflection of the rib, because of the
angle at which it struck and also because of the texture of the rib at
this time.
Mr. SPECTER. You say deflection of the rib or deflection of the bullet?
Dr. SHAW. Deflection of the bullet, I am sorry.
Mr. SPECTER. Was any metallic substance from the bullet left in the
thoracic cage as a result of the passage of the bullet through the
Governor's body?
Dr. SHAW. No. We saw no evidence of any metallic material in the X-ray
that we had of the chest, and we found none during the operation.
Mr. SPECTER. Have you brought the X-rays with you, Dr. Shaw, from
Parkland Hospital?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; we have them here.
Mr. SPECTER. May the record show we have available a viewer for the
X-rays.
Dr. Shaw, would you, by use of the viewer, exhibit the X-rays of
the Governor's chest to show more graphically that which you have
heretofore described?
Dr. SHAW. This is the first X-ray that was taken, which was taken in
the operating room with the Governor on the operating table, and at
this time anesthetized. The safety pin that you see here is used, was
used, to secure the tube which had been put between the second and
third rib in expanding the Governor's lung.
We can dimly see also the latex rubber tube up in the chest coming to
the apex of the chest.
The variations that we see from normal here are the fact that first,
there is a great amount of swelling in the chest wall which we know was
due to bleeding and bruising of the tissues of the chest wall, and we
also see that there is air in the tissues of the chest wall here and
here. It is rather obvious.
Mr. SPECTER. When you say here and here, you are referring to the outer
portions, showing on the X-ray moving up toward the shoulder area?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; going from the lower chest up to the region near the
angle of the shoulder blade.
The boney framework of the chest, it is obvious that the fifth rib,
we count ribs from above downward, this is the first rib, second rib,
third rib, fourth rib, fifth rib, that a portion of this rib has been
shattered, and we can see a few fragments that have been left behind.
Also the rib has because of being broken and losing some of its
substance, has taken a rather inward position in relation to the fourth
and the sixth ribs on either side.
Mr. SPECTER. What effect was there, if any, on the upper portion of
that rib?
Dr. SHAW. This was not noticed at the time of this examination, Mr.
Specter. However, in subsequent examinations we can tell that there was
a fracture across the rib at this point due to the rib being struck and
bent.
Mr. SPECTER. When you say this point, will you describe where that
point exists on the X-ray?
Dr. SHAW. This is a point approximately 4 centimeters from its
connection with the transverse process of the spine.
Mr. SPECTER. And is the fracture, which is located there, caused by a
striking there or by the striking at the end of the rib?
Dr. SHAW. It is caused by the striking at the end of the rib.
Mr. SPECTER. Fine. What else then is discernible from the viewing of
the X-ray, Dr. Shaw?
Dr. SHAW. There is a great amount of, we would say, obscuration of
the lower part of the right lung field which we know from subsequent
examination was due to blood in the pleural cavity and also due to a
hematoma in the lower part of the right lower lobe and also a severe
laceration of the middle lobe with it having lost its ability to
ventilate at that time. So, we have both an airless lung, and blood in
the lung to account for these shadows.
Mr. SPECTER. Is there anything else visible from the X-ray which is
helpful in our understanding of the Governor's condition?
Dr. SHAW. No; I don't think so.
Mr. SPECTER. Would it be useful--As to that X-ray, Dr. Shaw, will
you tell us what identifying data, if any, it has in the records of
Parkland Hospital, for the record?
Dr. SHAW. On this X-ray it has in pencil John G. Connally.
Mr. SPECTER. Is that G or C?
Dr. SHAW. They have a "G" November 22, 1963, and it has number 218-922.
Mr. SPECTER. Were those X-rays taken under your supervision?
Dr. SHAW. Yes, by a technician.
Mr. SPECTER. And that is, in fact, the X-ray then which was taken of
Governor Connally at the time these procedures were being performed?
Dr. SHAW. It is.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, would any of the other X-rays be helpful in our
understanding of the Governor's condition?
Dr. SHAW. I believe the only--perhaps showing one additional X-ray
would show the fracture previously described which was not easily
discernible on the first film. This is quite often true but not
important to the--here is the fracture that can be easily seen.
Mr. SPECTER. You are now referring to a separate and second X-ray.
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. Will you start out by telling us on what date this X-ray
was performed.
Dr. SHAW. This X-ray was made on the 29th of November 1963, 7 days
following the incident.
Mr. SPECTER. What does it show of significance?
Dr. SHAW. It shows that there has been considerable clearing in the
lower portion of the lung, and also that there is a fracture of the
fifth rib as previously described approximately 4 centimeters from the
transverse process posteriorly.
Mr. SPECTER. Is there anything else depicted by that X-ray of material
assistance in evaluating the Governor's wound?
Dr. SHAW. No.
Mr. McCLOY. Were there any photographs taken as distinguished from
X-rays of the body?
Dr. SHAW. There were no photographs.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, we shall then, subject to the approval of the
Commission, for the record, have the X-rays reproduced at Parkland
Memorial Hospital, and, if possible, also have a photograph of the
X-ray made for the permanent records of the Commission to show the
actual X-ray, which Dr. Shaw has described during his testimony here
this afternoon.
Senator COOPER. It is directed that it be made a part of the record of
these hearings.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, what additional operative procedures did you
perform on Governor Connally's chest?
Dr. SHAW. I will continue with my description of the operative
procedure. The opening that had been made through the rib after the
removal of the fragments was adequate for further exploration of the
pleural cavity. A self-retaining retractor was put into place to
maintain exposure. Inside the pleural cavity there were approximately
200 cc. of clotted blood.
It was found that the middle lobe had been lacerated with the
laceration dividing the lobe into roughly two equal parts. The
laceration ran from the lower tip of the middle lobe up into its root
or hilum.
However, the lobe was not otherwise damaged, so that it could be
repaired using a running suture of triple zero chromic catgut.
The anterior basal segments of the right lower lobe had a large
hematoma, and blood was oozing out of one small laceration that was
a little less than a centimeter in length, where a rib fragment had
undoubtedly been driven into the lobe. To control hemorrhage a single
suture of triple zero chromic gut was placed in this laceration. There
were several small matchstick size fragments of rib within the pleural
cavity. Examination, however, of the pericardium of the diaphragm and
the upper lobe revealed no injury to these parts of the chest.
A drain was placed in the eighth space in the posterior axillary line
similar to the drain which had been placed in the second interspace in
the front of the chest.
The drain in the front of the chest was thought to be a little too long
so about 3 centimeters of it were cut away.
Attention was then turned on the laceration of the latissimus dorsi
muscle where the missile had passed through it. Several sutures of
chromic gut where used to repair this muscle.
The incision was then closed with interrupted No. zero chromic gut in
the muscles of the chest wall--first, I am sorry, in the intercostale
muscle, and muscles of the chest wall, and the same suture material was
used to close the serratus anterior muscle in the subcutaneous tissue,
and interrupted vertical sutures of black silk were used to close the
skin.
Attention was then turned to the wound of entrance which, as previously
described, was about a centimeter and a half in its greatest diameter,
roughly elliptical in shape. The skin edges of this wound were
incised--excised, I beg your pardon--I have to go back just a little
bit.
Prior to examination of this wound, a stab wound was made at the
angle of the scapula to place a drain in the subscapular space. In
the examination of the wound of entrance, the examining finger could
determine that this drain was immediately under the wound of entrance,
so that it was adequately draining the space.
Two sutures were placed in the facia of the muscle, and the skin was
closed with interrupted vertical matching sutures of black silk.
That concluded the operation. Both tubes were connected to a water seal
bottle, and the dressing was applied.
Mr. SPECTER. Who was in charge then of the subsequent care on the
Governor's wrist?
Dr. SHAW. Dr. Charles Gregory who had been previously alerted and then
came in to take care of the wrist.
Mr. SPECTER. Now, with respect to the wound on the wrist, did you have
any opportunity to examine it by way of determining points of entry and
exit?
Dr. SHAW. My examination of the wrist was a very cursory one. I could
tell that there was a compound comminuted fracture because there was
motion present, and there was a ragged wound just over the radius above
the wrist joint. But that was the extent of my examination of the wrist.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, did I take your deposition at Parkland Memorial
Hospital on March 23 of 1964?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; you did.
Mr. SPECTER. Has that deposition been made available to you?
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. To you here this afternoon?
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. Have you subsequent to the giving of that deposition on
March 23, 1964, had an opportunity to examine Governor Connally's
clothing which we have available in the Commission room here today?
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. Now, based on all facts now within your knowledge, is
there any modification which you would care to make in terms of the
views which you expressed about entrance and exit wounds back on March
23, based on the information which was available to you at that time?
Dr. SHAW. From an examination of the clothing, it is very obvious that
the wound of entrance was through the coat sleeve.
Mr. SPECTER. While you are testifying in that manner, perhaps it would
be helpful if we would make available to you the actual jacket, if it
pleases the Commission.
We shall reserve Exhibits Nos. 681 for the X-ray of November 22; 682
for the X-ray of November 29; and we shall now mark a photograph of the
coat for our permanent records as "Commission Exhibit No. 683".
Dr. Shaw, I hand you at this time what purports to be the coat worn
by Governor Connally, which we introduce subject to later proof when
Governor Connally appears later this afternoon; and, for the record,
I ask you first of all if this photograph, designated as Commission
Exhibit No. 683, is a picture of this suit coat?
Dr. SHAW. It is.
Mr. SPECTER. I had interrupted you when you started to refer to the
hole in the sleeve of the coat. Will you proceed with what you were
testifying about there?
Dr. SHAW. The hole in the sleeve of the coat is within half a
centimeter of the very edge of the sleeve, and lies----
Mr. DULLES. This is the right sleeve, is it not?
Dr. SHAW. I am sorry, yes. Thank you. Of the right sleeve, and places
it, if the coat sleeve was in the same position, assuming it is in the
same position that my coat sleeve is in, places it directly over the
lateral portion of the wrist, really not directly on the volar or the
dorsum of the surface of the wrist, but on the lateral position or the
upper position, as the wrist is held in a neutral position.
Mr. SPECTER. With the additional information provided by the coat,
would that enable you to give an opinion as to which was the wound of
entrance and which the wound of exit on the Governor's wrist?
Dr. SHAW. There is only one tear in the Governor's garment as far as
the appearance of the tear is concerned, I don't think I could render
an opinion as to whether this is a wound of entrance or exit.
Mr. SPECTER. Then, do you have sufficient information at your disposal
in total, based on your observations and what you know now to give any
meaningful opinion as to which was the wound of entrance and which the
wound of exit on the Governor's wrist?
Dr. SHAW. I would prefer to have Dr. Gregory testify about that,
because he has examined it more carefully than I have.
Mr. SPECTER. Fine.
Mr. DULLES. Could you tell at all how the arm was held from that mark
or that hole in the sleeve?
Dr. SHAW. Mr. Dulles, I thought I knew just how the Governor was
wounded until I saw the pictures today, and it becomes a little bit
harder to explain.
I felt that the wound had been caused by the same bullet that came out
through the chest with the Governor's arm held in approximately this
position.
Mr. SPECTER. Indicating the right hand held close to the body?
Dr. SHAW. Yes, and this is still a possibility. But I don't feel that
it is the only possibility.
Senator COOPER. Why do you say you don't think it is the only
possibility? What causes you now to say that it is the location----
Dr. SHAW. This is again the testimony that I believe Dr. Gregory will
be giving, too. It is a matter of whether the wrist wound could be
caused by the same bullet, and we felt that it could but we had not
seen the bullets until today, and we still do not know which bullet
actually inflicted the wound on Governor Connally.
Mr. DULLES. Or whether it was one or two wounds?
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Mr. DULLES. Or two bullets?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; or three.
Mr. DULLES. Why do you say three?
Dr. SHAW. He has three separate wounds. He has a wound in the chest, a
wound of the wrist, a wound of the thigh.
Mr. DULLES. Oh, yes; we haven't come to the wound of the thigh yet,
have we?
Mr. McCLOY. You have no firm opinion that all these three wounds were
caused by one bullet?
Dr. SHAW. I have no firm opinion.
Mr. McCLOY. That is right.
Dr. SHAW. Asking me this now if it was true. If you had asked me a
month ago I would have.
Mr. DULLES. Could they have been caused by one bullet, in your opinion?
Dr. SHAW. They could.
Mr. McCLOY. I gather that what the witness is saying is that it is
possible that they might have been caused by one bullet. But that he
has no firm opinion now that they were.
Mr. DULLES. As I understand it too. Is our understanding correct?
Dr. SHAW. That is correct.
Senator COOPER. When you say all three are you referring to the wounds
you have just described to the chest, the wound in the wrist, and also
the wound in the thigh?
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Senator COOPER. It was possible?
Dr. SHAW. Our original assumption, Senator Cooper, was that the
Governor was approximately in this attitude at the time he was----
Senator COOPER. What attitude is that now?
Dr. SHAW. This is an attitude sitting in a jump seat as we know he
was, upright, with his right forearm held across the lower portion of
the chest. In this position, the trajectory of the bullet could have
caused the wound of entrance, the wound of exit, struck his wrist and
proceeded on into the left thigh. But although this is a possibility,
I can't give a firm opinion that this is the actual way in which it
occurred.
Mr. SPECTER. If it pleases the Commission, we propose to go through
that in this testimony; and we have already started to mark other
exhibits in sequence on the clothing. So that it will be more
systematic, we plan to proceed with the identification of clothing and
then go on to the composite diagram which explains the first hypothesis
of Dr. Shaw and the other doctors of Parkland. And then proceed from
that, as I intend to do, with an examination of the bullet, which will
explore the thinking of the doctor on that subject.
Dr. Shaw, for our record, I will hand you Commission Exhibit No. 684
and ask you if that is a picture of the reverse side of the coat, which
we will later prove to have been worn by Governor Connally, the coat
which is before you?
Dr. SHAW. It is.
Mr. SPECTER. What, if anything, appears on the back of that coat and
also on the picture in line with the wound which you have described on
the Governor's posterior chest?
Dr. SHAW. The picture--the coat and the picture of the coat, show a
rent in the back of the coat approximately 2-centimeters medial to
the point where the sleeve has been joined to the main portion of the
garment.
The lighter-colored material of the lining of the coat can be seen
through this rent in the coat.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, I show you a shirt, subject to later proof that
it was the shirt worn by Governor Connally, together with a photograph
marked "Commission Exhibit No. 685," and ask you if that is a picture
of that shirt, the back side of the shirt?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; it is a picture of the back side of the shirt. However,
in this particular picture I am not able to make out the hole in the
shirt very well.
Now I see it, I believe; yes.
Mr. SPECTER. Will you describe the hole as you see it to exist in the
shirt? Aside from what you see on the picture, what hole do you observe
on the back of the shirt itself?
Dr. SHAW. On the back of the shirt itself there is a hole, a punched
out area of the shirt which is a little more than a centimeter in its
greater diameter. The whole shirt is soiled by brown stains which could
have been due to blood.
Mr. SPECTER. How does the hole in the back of the shirt correspond with
the wound on the Governor's back?
Dr. SHAW. It does correspond exactly.
Mr. SPECTER. Now turning the same shirt over to the front side, I
ask you if the photograph, marked "Commission Exhibit No. 386," is a
picture of the front side of this shirt?
Dr. SHAW. It is.
Mr. SPECTER. What does the picture of the shirt show with respect to a
hole, if any, on the right side of the front of the shirt?
Dr. SHAW. The picture and the shirt show on the right side a much
larger rent in the garment with the rent being approximately 4
centimeters in its largest diameter.
Mr. SPECTER. What wound, if any, did the Governor sustain on his thigh,
Dr. Shaw?
Mr. DULLES. Just one moment, are you leaving this?
Mr. SPECTER. Yes.
Mr. DULLES. I wonder whether or not it would not be desirable for
the doctor to put on this photograph where these holes are, because
they are not at all clear for the future if we want to study those
photographs.
Dr. SHAW. This one is not so hard.
Mr. DULLES. That one appears but the other one doesn't appear and I
think it would be very helpful.
Dr. SHAW. How would you like to have me outline this?
Mr. SPECTER. Draw a red circle of what you conceive to be the hole
there, Doctor.
Mr. DULLES. The actual hole is not nearly as big as your circle, it is
the darkened area inside that circle, is it not?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; the darkened area is enclosed by the circle.
Mr. SPECTER. Are you able to note on the photograph of the back of the
shirt, 685?
Will you draw a red circle around the area of the hole on the
photograph then, Dr. Shaw?
Mr. DULLES. Would you just initial those two circles, if you can.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, what wounds, if any, did the Governor sustain on
his left thigh?
Dr. SHAW. He sustained a small puncture-type wound on the medial aspect
of the left thigh.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you have an opportunity to examine that closely?
Dr. SHAW. No.
Mr. SPECTER. Did you have an opportunity to examine it sufficiently to
ascertain its location on the left thigh?
Dr. SHAW. No; I didn't examine it that closely, except for its general
location.
Mr. SPECTER. Where was it with respect to a general location then on
the Governor's thigh?
Dr. SHAW. It is on the medial anterior aspect of the thigh.
Mr. DULLES. Nontechnically, what does it mean?
Dr. SHAW. Well, above, slightly above, between, in other words, the
medial aspect would be the aspect toward the middle of the body, but as
far as being how many centimeters or inches it is from the knee and the
groin, I am not absolutely sure.
Mr. SPECTER. I now show you a pair of trousers which we shall later
identify as being those worn by the Governor. I will, first of all, ask
you if a photograph bearing Commission Exhibit No. 687 is a picture of
those trousers?
Dr. SHAW. It is.
Mr. SPECTER. And what hole, if any did you observe on the trousers and
on the picture of the trousers?
Dr. SHAW. There is a hole in the garment that has been made by some
instrument which has carried away a part of the Governor's garment. In
other words, it is not a tear but is a punched out hole, and this is
approximately 4 centimeters on the inner aspect from the crease of the
trousers.
Mr. DULLES. Can you tell where the knee is there and how far above the
knee approximately?
Dr. SHAW. I can't tell exactly.
Mr. DULLES. I guess you can't tell.
Dr. SHAW. From the crotch I would say it would be slightly, it is a
little hard to tell, slightly more toward the knee than the groin.
Mr. SPECTER. Does that hole in the left leg of the trousers match up to
the wound on the left thigh of the Governor?
Dr. SHAW. To the best of my recollection it does.
Mr. DULLES. Are there any other perforations in these trousers at all,
any other holes?
Dr. SHAW. No.
Mr. DULLES. So that means that whatever made the hole on the front side
did not come through and make a hole anywhere else in the trousers?
Dr. SHAW. That is correct. It had to be a penetrating wound and not a
perforating wound, it didn't go on through.
Mr. SPECTER. Will you turn those trousers over, Dr. Shaw?
Dr. SHAW. I believe we had already looked at it.
Mr. SPECTER. On the reverse side, and state whether or not this picture
bearing Commission Exhibit No. 688 accurately depicts the reverse side
of the trousers?
Dr. SHAW. Yes; it does.
Mr. SPECTER. Is there any hole shown either on the picture or on the
trousers themselves?
Dr. SHAW. No.
Mr. SPECTER. Dr. Shaw, I now show you a body diagram which is marked
"Commission Exhibit No. 689."
Senator COOPER. May I ask a question before you ask that question?
When you first saw Governor Connally in the emergency room was he
dressed or undressed?
Dr. SHAW. His trousers were still on. He had his shorts on, I should
say, Senator Cooper, but his coat, shirt, and trousers had been removed.
Mr. SPECTER. Were his clothes anywhere in the vicinity where you could
have seen them?
Dr. SHAW. No; I never saw them. This is the first time that I saw them.
Mr. SPECTER. That is earlier today when you examined them in this room?
Dr. SHAW. That is correct.
Mr. SPECTER. Looking at Commission Exhibit No. 689, is that a drawing
which was prepared, after consultation with you, representing the
earlier theory of all of the Governor's wounds having been inflicted by
a single missile?
Dr. SHAW. That is correct.
Mr. SPECTER. With reference to that diagram, would you explain the
position that you had earlier thought the Governor to have been in when
he was wounded here?
Dr. SHAW. We felt that the Governor was in an upright sitting position,
and at the time of wounding was turning slightly to the right. This
would bring the three wounds, as we know them, the wound in the chest,
the wound in the wrist, and the wound in the thigh into a line assuming
that the right forearm was held against the lower right chest in front.
The line of inclination of this particular diagram is a little more
sharply downward than is probably correct in view of the inclination of
the ribs of the chest.
Mr. SPECTER. Will you redraw that line, Dr. Shaw, to conform with what
you believe to be----
Dr. SHAW. The fact that the muscle bundles on either side of the
fifth rib were not damaged meant that the missile to strip away 10
centimeters of the rib had to follow this rib pretty much along its
line of inclination.
Mr. DULLES. I wonder if you could use that red pencil to make it a
little clearer for us?
Dr. SHAW. I think these would probably work well on this paper. Perhaps
this isn't a tremendous point but it slopes just a little too much.
Mr. SPECTER. You have initialed that to show your incline?
Dr. SHAW. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. With respect to the wound you described on the thigh, Dr.
Shaw, was there any point of exit as to that wound?
Dr. SHAW. No.
