Dr. Shires. No; not in person. I discussed over the phone with the FBI—well, that was with regard to Oswald. I discussed over the phone what happened to the bullet that was taken from Oswald, but not with regard to the President or the Governor—no.

Mr. Specter. On your prior interviews by the Secret Service, sir, did they cover the same subjects which you and I have gone over today, or were other subjects covered?

Dr. Shires. No; essentially the same subjects.

Mr. Specter. And was any different information given to you by the Secret Service at that time of either of those two occasions?

Dr. Shires. No; the same as we have discussed here.

Mr. Specter. Now, prior to the time when you were sworn in and the court reporter started to take the deposition in shorthand form, did you and I have a brief discussion about the purpose of the deposition and the subject matters of interest to the Commission?

Dr. Shires. Yes.

Mr. Specter. And was the same information given by you to me during the course of that informal discussion as you have testified to on the record here this afternoon?

Dr. Shires. Yes; in less detail.

Mr. Specter. And do you have anything which you would care to add which you think might be helpful to the Commission in its work?
