  • The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza presented "Parkland Hospital: Trauma Room One Reunion" on September 24, 2013. The program featured Dr. Ronald C. Jones and Dr. Robert N. McClelland, two of the physicians who contributed to President John F. Kennedy's treatment in Trauma Room One, and-less than 48 hours later-tried to save the life of the accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. Dr. Jones was the chief surgery resident in Parkland Memorial Hospital's emergency room on November 22, 1963. Dr. McClelland was an instructor in surgery at the time, and he assisted in the surgery of Texas Governor John Connally. Moderator was WFAA-TV's award-winning anchor John McCaa.

    I was fortunate enough to interview and correspond with the vast majority of the Parkland team in 1992-1995. A few years later, I had the honor of introducing Dr. Ron Jones at a research conference in Dallas. Of all the interviews I did, these two, along with Dr. Charles Crenshaw, made the most consistent statements and were far more forthcoming than most. Dr. Jones chooses his words very carefully, but those three physicians consistently, over multiple interviews, gave the exact same statements and I never found any inconsistency in what any of them said.

      I drove a medic rig for 18 years. One man stuck a .22 pistol in his mouth pointing up towards his brain. He clearly did not want to live. We transported him to the hospital while taking his vitals and attending to him. He was conscious, lucid and coherent. We even carried on a normal conversation with him. He seemed fine and the prospects seemed miraculously positive.
      The bullet caromed off his palate, traveled down thru his chest, and ended up in his hip.
      We found out later that…he died.

It appears with all the hair and blood and brain matter that’s flowing down to the back of the head due to gravity that there is a wound to the back of the head, ( it really does look like it, have a look at the photo) but when they cleaned him off and got the hair out of the way, it was clear the back of the head was intact, as clearly can be seen in the clear enhanced zapruder film. Also jthere’s a good show by nova in the 80’s called who shot president Kennedy. They took mcclelland and a few other doctors to the national archives to view the photos, after seeing the photos he said, “i said that I thought perhaps part of the cerebellum was missing, and that shows even how a trained observer can make an error in a time of urgency”.

My Question is why in any common sense world would people supposedly on a fact finding mission be trying to tell the doctor he is wrong and it could be this or that unless they already knew what outcome they were after. It just tells me that Jones is persuadable and Robert is not. He is sure that massive wound is an exit as common sense would dictate.

      Like Lincoln, JFK's head wound was mortal. They made a valiant effort, but the president was gone at 12:30PM with that head shot. He was in agonal breathing and there was no hope when he got to Parkland. I still always marvel at the fact that both Lincoln and JFK ignored warnings about assassination from the people who were supposed to keep them safe. Lincoln had a death wish. His calvary could have kept him safe, but he shooed them away. JFK refused any measures to mitigate an assassination attempt. Just unbelievable.

    These two gentlemen are medical doctors, very intelligent doctors and I feel that they are very truthful and did their best that traumatic day to save our President. The sad part is that JFK was injured so bad that no doctors could have saved his life. When brain matter is destroyed and just falls out they can do nothing and they knew it when that happened which is why they didn't do heart massage on the President. It would have been cruel and senseless to do that after seeing his brain destroyed. Thank You for sharing this. Listening to them answers some of my many questions.

      Kelly , I hope you find answers to all the questions you had surrounding this event. I was 7 when this happened & the teachers sent us home from school. got home & my grand mother was on the couch watch the news reports on this crying. I sat down next to her & watched with her. Growing up my parents NEVER believed the Warren Report. So there was a burning desire to find out what happened that day. I've read a bunch of books / saw many documentaries but there is ONE Video that was released that answered all my questions. The video follows a detective working thru crime scene using detailed Ballistic analysis along with all the other testimony & facts from that day. Its called " JFK The Smoking Gun " . That detective does a great job doing the analysis of what happened & who fired that fatal head shot / why it happened & why we our in this state of confusion about this ! Awesome video worth the price / time to find it & see it. I have watched it over 8 times & now I know what truly happened on that day & why our government has covered up the evidence. You have got to see this video I guarantee you will not be disappointed !

And we ranged in age from toddlers to very old people. And the children know about it. And knew it was very sad. And a very bad thing. JFK was our President. Of all of us. All media was sad. Walter Cronkite cried. He could hardly talk.
    We all cried.

      Oh, that's not true. Unfortunately (or, maybe fortunately) when someone is killed, we forget about the bad, elevate the good. But people have taken out ads in the paper that day accused him of treason. He was met at the airport with protesters holding confederate flags, which was a protest against him, even the "umbrella man" was actually a man protesting his policies. I will give you this, it has gotten dramatically worse, but let's not act like everybody loved, in fact, there are been several people who have been called out over the years for their immediate response being celebration. People were just classy enough to keep a lot of that crap to themselves back then.

    I have to commend the Sixth Floor Museum for hosting this, and for letting these gentlemen give their accounts and also John McCaa for being willing to ask some critical questions. Too often coverage of this assassination in the media is aimed at shutting down any discussion of the official conclusions. One thing I was puzzled by is both doctors saying they had no problems with the autopsy report, even though they previously said the report's illustrations of Kennedy's head injury did not represent what they saw. That would seem to indicate problems with the autopsy, to put it mildly. Still, a very good discussion.
