Dr. LIGHT. And the fact that the bullet that passed through the
President's body lost very little velocity since it passed through
soft tissue, so that it would strike the Governor, if it did, with a
velocity only, what was it, 100 feet per second, very little lower than
it would have if it hadn't struck anything else first. I am not sure,
I didn't see, of course, none of us saw the wounds in the Governor in
the fresh state or any other time, and I am not too convinced from
the measurements and the descriptions that were given in the surgical
reports and so on that the actual holes through the skin were unusually
large.
Mr. SPECTER. Have you had access to the autopsy records?
Dr. LIGHT. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. And have you had access to the reports of Parkland
Hospital on the Governor's operations there?
Dr. LIGHT. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. All three of them?
Dr. LIGHT. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. And have you had an opportunity to view the films of the
assassination commonly known as the Zapruder films?
Dr. LIGHT. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. And the slides?
Dr. LIGHT. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. And have you had an opportunity to talk to Dr. Shaw and
Dr. Gregory who performed the thoracic and wrist operations on Governor
Connally?
Dr. LIGHT. Yes.
Mr. SPECTER. And you heard Governor Connally's version yourself?
