Quote on
Dr. Kemp Clark
Dr. Clark testified that after noting the President's deviated and dilated eyes, "I then examined the wound in the back of the President's head." (6 H 20). Later, he said, "As I was examining the President's wound, I felt for a carotid pulse and felt none." (6 H 20). As has been noted [Dr. Paul Peters' testimony, see page 3 of this memorandum], it was this examination by Clark and Dr. Jenkins which led to the decision not to open the chest and to end resuscitative efforts.
And what did this neurosurgeon observe? "A large wound in the right occipitoparietal region .... Both cerebral and cerebellar tissue were [sic] extruding from the wound." (CE 392) "There was a large gaping wound in the right posterior part, with cerebral and cerebellar tissue being damaged and exposed." (6 H 20)
Dr. Robert McClelland
McClelland made it clear that he saw the head wound very well: "As I took my position at the head of the table ... to help out with the tracheotomy, I was in such a position that I could very closely examine the head wound." (6 H 33)
In McClelland's careful examination, "I noted that the right posterior portion of the skull had been extremely blasted. It had been shattered apparently by the force of the shot so that the parietal bone was protruded up through the scalp and seemed to be fractured almost along its right posterior half, as well as some of the occipital bone being fractured in its lateral half, and this sprung open the bones so that you could actually look down into the skull cavity itself and see that probably a third or so, at least, of the brain tissue, posterior cerebral tissue and some of the cerebellar tissue had been blasted out. (6 H 33)
It is difficult to imagine how anyone could read McClelland's detailed observations and still contend that the Parkland doctors did not see the head wound well enough to locate it accurately. In point of fact, Dr. McClelland pinpoints the damage to the occipital and parietal bones more specifically than did Dr. Humes in his detailed autopsy examination! And McClelland's estimate of lost brain tissue comports quite well with Humes's supplementary autopsy conclusions.
SUMMARY
1. A considerable amount of research has been done, comparing the observations of the head wound by Parkland doctors to the later autopsy report and the Bethesda X-rays and photographs. Serious contradictions are obvious.
2. However, less attention has been given to the question of just how well the Parkland doctors saw the wound. The current "trend" among the Parkland doctors is to claim that they did not see the head wound very well and took little note of it. THESE ASSERTIONS ARE REFUTED BY THEIR OWN SWORN TESTIMONY. THE RECORD CLEARLY SHOWS THAT SEVERAL OF THESE DOCTORS GAVE SPECIFIC, DETAILED TESTIMONY CONCERNING THE NATURE AND LOCATION OF THE WOUND.
3. IT IS AN IRREFUTABLE FACT THAT MOST OF THESE MEN WERE ASKED BY EITHER THE WARREN COMMISSION OF THE HSCA (OR BOTH) TO LOCATE AND DESCRIBE THIS WOUND. NOT ONE OF THE DOCTORS EVER SAID, "I COULD NOT SEE THE WOUND WELL ENOUGH TO OFFER AN OPINION," OR "I REALLY AM NOT CERTAIN," OR "I WAS NOT ABLE TO OBSERVE THE WOUND IN ANY DETAIL AND WOULD PREFER NOT TO SPECULATE." THESE MEN WERE UNDER OATH AND CLEARLY KNEW THE IMPORTANCE OF THE QUESTIONS THEY WERE BEING ASKED. WITHOUT EXCEPTION, THE PARKLAND DOCTORS CHOSE TO LOCATE THE WOUND--AND TO LOCATE IT WITH A CONSISTENCY WHICH CAN ONLY BE CALLED REMARKABLE.
CONTRADICTIONS BETWEEN THE OBSERVATIONS OF CERTAIN PARKLAND DOCTORS AS REPORTED IN THE OFFICIAL RECORD AND AS REPORTED BY GERALD POSNER IN "CASE CLOSED".

Nothing else needs to be said as it is obvious from the evidence on RECORD that the words in Posner’s book was a “rewriting” of history.
