Dear Mr. Palamara,
In reply to your letter in regard to the events at Parkland Hospital on
that fateful date November 22, 1963.
I was present at Parkland Hospital on that date in my role as a 2nd year
medical student. I observed President Kennedy's limousine outside the
emergency entrance. Another student and I went closer to observe the
limousine and the damage to the front windshield. Secret Service agents
appeared and moved the car to another location.
There was a bullet hole in the windshield.
I believe that the entire story has never been told.
Sincerely,
Evalea Glanges, M.D. "

Vince, are you arguing that there really was a through and through
hole in the windshield, and not the little ding that the windshield
now in the National Archives shows?
If so, the letter above and most of the sources you cite below are too
vague to establish that there was a through and through hole, as
opposed to the ding.
Vince, an entire bullet could not have passed throught the windshield
without either shattering it, or (depending on the kind of safety
glass) leaving a nasty spider web of cracks across the entire surface.
Neither of those things happened.

I don't think that is necessarily so, John.....but that doesn't mean
there was a through and through hole either. Would be nice if any of
these witnesses had said they actually touched the window on the
outside and felt that even the cracks went all the way through let
alone a hole.
Doug De Salles met a guy through a colleague who it turned out was on
the transport plane taking the limo back to D.C. This is what Doug
says about that...and I quote this with his permission:
"The guy I talked to was in the USAF, a
young man taking part in the airlift of the presidential vehicles.
He was flying back to DC with the limo in the hold when a SSA
said "we think there was another bullet" and wanted to go
down into the hold. The light was bad but they did see a
fragment of bloodied bone in the rear which caused them both
to stop searching. They were unnerved. He did get a good look
at the windshield, and it was definitely NOT perforated with a hole.
He observed cracks, he said, consistent with published photos of the
windshield.
Use this any way you like. The guy struck me as utterly credible."
Barb :-)
***I have seen the photo of the windshield of the limo as it sat at the
hospital. The windshield is cracked. I know what a bullet hole in glass
looks like and that crack doesn't come anywhere close to being a hole
through the glass.

Huh? A bullet from a high powered rifle (you don't supposed the Evil
Minions of The Conspiracy were using pellet guns, do you) hits a
windshield at full velocity, and faile to produce damage that would be
spectacularly obvious?
I don't think so.
Although I wonder whether I could get one of my students needing a
research project to go out to a junkyard and shoot up some windshields
with a rifle :-).

Nice quote, Barb. Unlike the quotes Vince posted, this fellow did
specifically address the question of whether there was a perforation.
"Hole" is a little bit like "back of the head," Barb :-). Vince can
*interpret* it as a perforation, and *wants* to interpret it that way,
but it doesn't necessarily mean that.

Ron, can you or anyone post a source for such a photo?
