Do you remember the "umbrella man" that was first thought to have been a signal man or gunman because they caught him on film raising and lowering his umbrella as JFK passed. Well, I was at a seminar that he spoke at and gave a first hand account. Turns out that his umbrella was some sort of protest but he talked about hearing multiple gunshots that did not sound like echoes. He had a very interesting story that I wish I had taped. I guess I'm getting to old to remember it all now. Just did a search on google and found all kinds of articles that say the umbrella man shot Kennedy with a dart gun. Only one article I found has the true story about this. Here's a couple that do not tell the whole story but in fact takes the Oliver Stone approach that makes it look like nobody knows who the umbrella man is. jfk-assassination.de hobrad.com LOL! I think those articles need Paul Harvey's "...and now for the rest of the story." Here is the real account, the umbrella man section is at the bottom: guterman.net
