Dr. Clark. Yes.
Mr. Specter. And what else did you state at the press conference at 2:30 on November 22?
Dr. Clark. I stated that the President had lost considerable blood, that one of the contributing causes of death was this massive blood loss, that I was unable to state how many wounds the President had sustained or from what angle they could have come.
I finally remember stating that the President's wound was obviously a massive one and was insurvivable.
Mr. Specter. What did Dr. Perry say at that time, during the course of that press conference, when the cameras were operating?
Dr. Clark. As I recall, Dr. Perry stated that there was a small wound in the President's throat, that he made the incision for the tracheotomy through this wound. He discovered that the trachea was deviated so he felt that the missile had entered the President's chest. He asked for chest tubes then to be placed in the pleural cavities. He was asked if this wound in the throat was an entrance wound or an exit wound. He said it was small and clean so it could have been an entrance wound.
Mr. Specter. Did he say anything else that you can recollect now in response to the question of whether it was a wound of entrance or exit?
Dr. Clark. No, sir; I cannot recall.
Mr. Specter. Were you a part of a second press conference, Dr. Clark?
Dr. Clark. Yes, sir.
