Mr. Specter. Did you have occasion to render assistance to President Kennedy back on November 22, 1963?
Miss Bowron. I did; yes, sir.
Mr. Specter. Will you relate briefly the circumstances surrounding your being called in to assist in that case?
Miss Bowron. I was assigned to work in the minor medicine and surgery area, and I was passing through major surgery, and I heard over the intercom that they needed carts out at the emergency room entrance, so the orderly from the triage desk, which was passing through and he and I took one cart from major surgery and ran down the hall and by the cashier's desk there were some men I assume were Secret Service men.
Mr. Specter. Did you know at that time whom you were going to aid?
Miss Bowron. No, sir.
Mr. Specter. You later assumed they were Secret Service men?
Miss Bowron. Yes, sir, and they encouraged us to run down to the door.
Mr. Specter. And did you have a stretcher with you at that time?
Miss Bowron. Yes, sir.
