Mr. Vaughn. Well, as far as—actually, when I got inside the ramp, I don't believe there was anybody that went by between the time that I stepped back inside and the actual time of the shooting. When I say I recall, well, I'll put it definite—I know there wasn't—I'll put it that way.
Mr. Hubert. That's the way I had understood your previous testimony, because I had asked you as to whether it were possible for anyone to have passed by you previously when you were examining the credentials of others.
Mr. Vaughn. No.
Mr. Hubert. And I think your answer to me was—no, it was impossible—they would have had to go either to the left or right of you and you were standing in the middle of a 12-foot opening?
Mr. Vaughn. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Is it fair to say, then, that after you got back to your post, following the exit of Rio Pierce's car, that nobody passed you?
Mr. Vaughn. Nobody passed me.
Mr. Hubert. Specifically, did Jack Ruby pass you?
Mr. Vaughn. No, sir.
Mr. Hubert. Now, when the Rio Pierce car was coming out, what steps or action did you take to maintain the security of your post while that car was passing through?
