Mr. Griffin. And you were on the Commerce Street side of the garage?
Mr. McCullough. Yes.
Mr. Griffin. Now, as you stood up there on that pillar, or on that railing, do you remember an automobile coming out of the garage and coming up the Main Street ramp just shortly before Oswald came out?
Mr. McCullough. No; I do not. I remember one car coming out of the parking level and heading toward the Commerce Street ramp, and parking there. Because, for awhile I feared—had it not moved forward, it would have blocked my vision. But it did move forward slightly toward Commerce Street, and then it did give me a clear view.
Mr. Griffin. Do you recall what ability you had to see from the position that you were at up to the top of the Main Street ramp, and to distinguish faces and figures?
Mr. McCullough. This would have been very limited. I made no effort to look in that direction.
Mr. Griffin. My real question is do you recall——
Mr. McCullough. No; I don’t recall. I may add—the area along the inner part of the ramp, that is the part of the ramp closest to the parking garage, and nearest to Main Street, was pretty well taken up by television cameras, the heavy rolling type, rather than the hand type of equipment.
Mr. Griffin. Do you recall any initial instructions that were given to the press people in the basement, as to where they were to station themselves?
Mr. McCullough. Yes; we were told by several police officers—as a matter of fact, from the first moment of my entry into this area, I was told that we were to station ourselves along the ramp, not too close to the exits, and once we were told that Oswald was on his way down, that we were not to move at all.
