Recently here in the Nut House, I and some Retard were discussing Star Nutter Witness Howard Brennan's eyesight. Just in case the Lurker is not familiar with this issue, I will provide some context.
The photography from the day of the assassination shows a person whom we are supposed to believe is Howard Brennan, wearing his construction outfit, sitting on a wall, standing on the TSBD steps, sitting in Inspector Sawyer's car, and walking off with Forrest Sorrels and the gang. While the photography is not good enough to identify Howard Brennan's face, it is good enough to show that this person is not wearing glasses. Yet every photograph of Brennan after the assassination shows him to be wearing glasses. In his Warren Commission testimony, where this topic was brought up three separate times, Brennan says that he his "farsighted," and describes his glasses in terms of them being reading glasses. Yet he also says that his optometrist, whose name he cannot remember, but whom Mr. Belin tells him is a "Howard R. Bonar," tells him that his eyesight is "not good." We are to take it, apparently, that this was caused by an incident, as Brennan puts it, "The last of January I got both eyes sandblasted." Or maybe it was February. Brennan does not seem to be sure.
Anyway, apparently, since Brennan got both of his eyes sandblasted, he seems to always be wearing his reading glasses. All of the relevant WC testimony is reproduced below for your reading pleasure.
Mr. BELIN. By the way, Mr. Brennan, I note that you have glasses with you here today.
Were you wearing glasses at the time of the incident that you related here?
Mr. BRENNAN. No. I only use glasses to see fine print and more especially the Bible and blueprint.
Mr. BELIN. And have you had your eyes checked within the past 2 or 3 years?
Mr. BRENNAN. These here were prescriptioned, I believe, a possibility less than a year before the incident.
Mr. DULLES. Does that mean you are farsighted?
Mr. BRENNAN. Yes.
(At this point, Representative Ford entered the hearing room.)
Mr. BELIN. Has there been anything that has happened since the time of November 22, 1963, that has changed your eyesight in any way?
Mr. BRENNAN. Yes, sir.
Mr. BELIN. What has happened?
Mr. BRENNAN. The last of January I got both eyes sandblasted.
Mr. BELIN. This is January of 1964?
Mr. BRENNAN. Yes. And I had to be treated by a Doctor Black, I believe, in the Medical Arts Building, through the company. And I was completely blind for about 6 hours.
Mr. BELIN. How is your eyesight today?
Mr. BRENNAN. He says it is not good.
Mr. BELIN. But this occurred January of this year, is that correct?
Mr. BRENNAN. Yes.
Mr. BELIN. Do you remember the doctor that examined your eyes when you had them examined?
Mr. BRENNAN. He is in Port Lavaca. He is the only leading optometrist there.
Mr. BELIN. Would it be Dr. Howard R. Bonar?
Mr. BRENNAN. That is right.
How did you find that out?
Mr. BRENNAN. Well, sir, it is on one of your interviews here.
Mr. BRENNAN. Had that question been asked me before?
Mr. BELIN. Yes, it had. On November 22, when you advised that you wore glasses for reading purposes only.
Mr. BRENNAN. That is right, the FBI, Mr. Lish, right?
Mr. BELIN. Yes, sir.
Mr. McCLOY. That examination was before the sand blasting, of course.
Mr. BRENNAN Oh, yes, sir. The sandblasting wasn't until January or early February of this year.
Representative FORD. Did you have your glasses on at the time of the assassination?
Mr. BRENNAN. No.
Mr. McCLOY. You can see better at that distance without your glasses than with them?
Mr. BRENNAN. Oh, yes, much better. Oh, I could put these glasses on and it
is just like looking through a window pane. The upper part is just regular clear.
Mr. McCLOY. Are you a member of a church?
Mr. BRENNAN. Yes, sir.
Mr. McCLOY. What church are you a member of?
Mr. BRENNAN. Baptist.
Mr. McCLOY. You testified you were a Bible reader.
Mr. BRENNAN. Well, I don't read it as much as I should.
Mr. McCLOY. When you do, you have to wear glasses?
Mr. BRENNAN. Yes, sir.
