1:03:01
The second spotter, talking by radio to
the other teams, has the best overall view.

1:03:06
The God spot.
1:03:08
B-team, one rifleman and one spotter
with access to the building...

1:03:13
...moves into a low floor
of the Dal-Tex building.

1:03:16
The third team, C-team, moves in
behind the fence above the grassy knoll...

1:03:21
...where the shooter and the spotter
are first seen by the late Lee Bowers.

1:03:26
They have the best position.
1:03:29
Kennedy is close and on a flat,
low trajectory.

1:03:33
Part of this team is a coordinator...
1:03:34
...who flashed security credentials
at people, chasing them from the area.

1:03:40
Probably two to three more men
are in the crowd.

1:03:44
Ten to twelve men.
Three teams. Three shooters.

1:03:48
The triangulation of fire Clay Shaw and
David Ferrie discussed two months before.

1:03:53
They blocked the plaza.
1:03:55
They know every inch.
1:03:59
They've calibrated their sights.
Practiced on moving targets.

1:04:03
They're ready.
1:04:05
Kennedy's motorcade makes a turn
from Main onto Houston.

1:04:09
Is going to be a turkey shoot.
1:04:13
They don't shoot him on Houston...
1:04:15
...the easiest shot for a single shooter
in the Depository.

1:04:19
They wait till he gets to the killing zone
between three rifles.

1:04:23
Kennedy makes the turn
from Houston onto Elm.

1:04:27
Slowing down to some 11 miles an hour.
1:04:31
The shooters across Dealey Plaza tighten,
taking their aim.

1:04:37
Waiting for the radio to say,
"Green! Green!"

1:04:41
Or, "Abort! Abort!"
1:04:49
The first shot rings out.
1:04:51
Sounding like a backfire,
it misses the car completely.

1:04:55
Frame 161, Kennedy stops waving
as he hears something.

1:04:58
Connally's head turns slightly to the right.
