November 22, 1963. Dallas, Texas  example: Then came the gunshots that change everything. A __bullet__ hits Jack on the __back of the neck__. Connolly,in the front seat, is hit in the back, then the wrist then in the leg. Another bullet strikes jack on the back of his head, and he slumps to the side. The back bracewears keeps him upright in his seat, making him an easy target for that last devastating bullet. Had he been able to flop forward, that bullet may have missed his skull. =//John.f.Kennedy A photographic story of a life by Howard S. Kaplan page 102//=
