Limo Clean-Up:
1) "TheWay We Were-1963: The Year Kennedy Was Shot" by Robert MacNeil
        (1988,
        Carrol & Graf), p. 197:"The president's car was there [Parkland
        Hospital],
        still at the point where it had pulled up, and they had taken the
        president out
        into that emergency entrance...I remember that the Secret Service men
        were then
        STARTING TO MOP UP THE BACK SEAT OF THE BIG LINCOLN THE PRESIDENT WAS
        PUT IN,
        and a few minutes later they started putting the fabric top on it. And
        when I
        went over to look at it a little closer, one of the agents waved me
        aside and
        said, 'You can't look.' Later, of course, it seemed ironic that this
        wall of
        protection went up when it of course could do no good...";
        2) 21 H 226---Parkland Hospital Orderly Joe L. Richards:
        asked to get a bucket of water; he complied;
        3) 21 H 217---Nurse Shirley Randall:
        was asked if she "would get someone to come and wash the blood out of
        the car."
        She said that she would, but was so nervous and excited she forgot about
        it;
        4) "Time" Magazine, 11/29/63, p. 24---reporter Hugh Sidey:
        "A guard was set up around the Lincoln as Secret Service men got a pail
        of
        water and tried to wash the blood from the car.";
        5) ABC, 11/22/63---reporter Don Gardner:
        "Outside the hospital, blood had to be wiped from the limousine";
        6) "New York Times", 11/23/63, p. 2---reporter Tom Wicker:
        "...the police were guarding the Presidential car closely. A bucket of
        water
        stood by the car, suggesting that the back seat had been scrubbed out.";

        7) "The Day Kennedy Was Shot" by Jim Bishop, p. 352 [1992 edition]:
        "...the Secret Service detail was sorry that hospital orderlies had
        sponged it
        [the limousine] out.";
        8) "The Death of a President" by William Manchester, p. 180n [1988
        edition]:
        "An inaccurate [?] story reported that they washed out the back seat
        with a
        bucket of water. Actually, this was contemplated.";
        9) 18 H 731-732---SS Agent Sam Kinney; 18 H 763-764---SS Agent George
        Hickey:
        the two agents who put on the bubbletop---with the assistance of a DPD
        motorcycle officer---at Parkland: they are pictured in the infamous
        photos/
        films of the bucket beside the limousine:
