Mr. Specter. May the record show that the shirt has heretofore been identified as Commission Exhibit 394?
The Chairman. Yes; it may be.
Mr. Specter. What, if anything, did you observe then on the back side of the shirt, Mr. Frazier?
Mr. Frazier. I found on the back of the shirt a hole, 5¾ inches below the top of the collar, and as you look at the back of the shirt 1-1/8 inch to the right of the midline of the shirt, which is this hole I am indicating.
Mr. Specter. May the record show the witness is examining the shirt, as he has the coat, to indicate the hole to the Commission.
The Chairman. The record may show that.
Mr. Frazier. In connection with this hole, I made the same examination as I did on the coat, Exhibit 393. I found the same situation to prevail, that is the hole was approximately circular in shape, about one-fourth inch in diameter, and again the physical shape of it is characteristic of a bullet hole, that is the edges are frayed, and there are slight radial tears in the cloth, which is characteristic of a bullet having passed through the cloth, and further, the fibers around the margin of the hole were—had been pressed inward, and assuming that, when I first examined the shirt it was in the same condition as it was at the time the hole was made, it is my opinion that this hole, in addition, was caused by a bullet entering the shirt from the back at that point.
Mr. Specter. Is that hole consistent with having been caused by a 6.5 millimeter bullet?
Mr. Frazier. Yes; it is.
Mr. Specter. With respect to the front side of the shirt, what, if any, hole did you find there?
