Mr. Specter. What else, if anything, of importance did you do between the time you viewed the body in the morgue until the termination of your duties on that date, Mr. Hill?

Mr. Hill. We handled all communications on the 17th floor, up to the 17th floor, for Mrs. Kennedy, members of her family, Cabinet members who were there at that time, and secured the 17th floor for all personnel. No one was permitted there that we did not know.

Mr. Specter. What time did you leave the 17th floor?

Mr. Hill. I believe, sir, it was 3:56, but I am not sure of the exact time.

Mr. Specter. Where did you go from there?

Mr. Hill. We went downstairs to the rear of the hospital, where the body was placed in a naval ambulance. I entered an automobile immediately behind the ambulance. Mrs. Kennedy and the Attorney General got into the rear of the ambulance with the body.

Mr. Specter. And from there, where did you go?

Mr. Hill. I accompanied them to the White House.

Mr. Specter. And did that mark the termination of your duties for that day?

Mr. Hill. No, sir. I remained on duty until approximately 6:30 in the morning; went home, changed clothes, and came back.
