photggr:ajil of good qual i ty highly probable. The physiological charac te r
of Htmt can be brief ly SlSlmed up as: ath le t ic , f i m , and <>-Ssertive \vi th

~ I H I O R A N D U j \ 1 FOR: 0/DDO (Attn: [_ JSUBJECT German ?-laga zinc At tempts to Tie Hol>a rd Hunt/Frank Sturgis to the Dallas Assassination of
Pres ident Kennedy
1 . Recent publ ic i ty agains t CIA fn the U.S. has st imula ted the German weekly Der Stern to intensi fy previouseffo_rts to t ie HO\·:ard Hunt and Frank Sturgis to t ~ Dallasassass inat ion of Pres ident Kennedy. According to[
j the magaz}.nc }Jlc:ut,: , c:or ~ y ~ c ~ u r ~ e r ~ e r d He1cternann to u a l l ~ about 9 January for
interviews. The repor ter working on the story a t Stern,Frank Heigl , claims to be in touch '"i th "dissident CIAs t a f fe r s who '"ere for c e d ou t a f t e r D 11a s . " He i gl sup -posedly picked up these contacts in Ankara and Frankfurt .
2. In October 1974, Der Stern paid Dallas photographerJack Beers $1,000 for copies-of pic tures he had taken ofpersons being led away by the pol ice from the book deposLtory a f t e r the assass inat ion c f President Kennedy. The ~ a g a -zine wa s attempting to iden t i fy :'!aterg::!.te cefe!ldants Ho·,ardHunt and Frank Sturgis with persons shown in the Dallasphotographs to bui ld up a s tory implying Hunt (and by
inference CIA) involvementin
the assassinat ion. To but t re s sth i s conjecture, the magazine hired Professor Rainer Knussm_ann of th_ Anthropological"- Ins t i tu te of the University ofHamburg to do a "sc ien t i f i c" comparison of the Dallas photos\·ri th stock shots of Hunt and Sturgis . His findings are tha tthere i s a high probabi l i ty t ha t Hunt and Sturgis could beident ica l with two persons shO\·m in the Dallas snaps}totsand tha t the matter should be pursued fur ther . A s u ~ ~ a r yt rans la t ion of the Knussmann f indings is attached.

15 December 1978
MlliORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: House Assassinat ion Committee - Enhancement of Photographs
1. During the week of 11-15 December 1978, four sets of photographs
and negatives were processed to determine i f the subjects in these sets
were the same person.
a . Procedures:
1. The IDEE Digi ta l Vidicon Scanning System (DVSS) and the
COMTAL VISION I were used to process both th e or ig ina l mater ia ls
received and the addi t ional negatives generated by the NPIC Photo
Lab.
2. All images were categorized for processing according to
the look angle of the subject , i . e . f ront , l e f t , and r igh t . The
enhancement technique ut i l ized consis ted of regis tra t ion of the
images to the best quali ty image in i t s category. In addi t ion,l inear mapping techniques were also used to search for deta i ls
within the images. Spec i f ic points o f in t e r e s t (eyes , ears , mouth,
hair l ine , nose and chin) were compared on each subject . These
comparisions were made both visual ly by using the systems ab i l i ty
to a l te rna te ly display up to three of the registered images a tvarying ra tes as wel l as mathematically using Photogrammetry tech
niques .
b. Results:
1. The analysis of Sets A, B, C, and D, produced the fo l -
lowing resu l ts :
- The visual analysis of Sets A and B indicate that th e
subjects are the same. Analysis of Sets C and D indicatethat the subjects are the same. The comparison of Sets
C and D to the only other f rontal subject , Set B-Image 5,
did not provide suff ic ien t de ta i l to make a posi t ive iden
t i f ica t ion possible with any degree of confidence. There
are s im i l ia r i t i e s in the h a ir l in e , ears , and eyes . I t i s
not possible to determine posit ively that the person in
Set A and B and the person from Set C and D are one and
the same.

- The mathematical analysis of f ive of the better views
indicate both s imi lar i t ies and dis imi lar i t ies . The
two polaroids in Set C had excel lent matchups in two
of the c r i t i ca l measurement areas to Set D; the rat io
of the to ta l head height to the distance from the eyeto the top of the head and the ra t io of the face width
to the eye base length. These ra t ios despite weight
or age should remain fair ly constant . Two other photos
were mensurated, both from Set B. The two photos, the
gentleman in a l igh t colored sh i r t placing something in
a bag and the gentleman in the dark sh i r t looking to hisr ight , were also very closely matched in the c r i t i ca l
measurement a r e a s ~ The rat ios of a l l measurements taken
are in Table 1.
2. In general , a l l resul ts of mensuration do not yield con
clusive evidence that a l l photographs are of the same-individual.
The gentleman in both the l igh t and dark shir ts pictured in SetsA and B are very l ikely th e same individual . The three photographs
in Sets C and D could a l l be of the same individual.

1. Question A: Are the individuals in prints A the same individual?
Answer: I t is believed that a l l individuals in Set A are th e same.
This i s based on enhancement techniques and measurement
techniques. (See attached table)
2. Question B: Are th e individuals in the negatives in B, except
the one excluded, the same individual?
Answer: All individuals in Set B, except the one excluded, are
the same individual . This i s based on the same methods
and data used to answer Question A.
3. Question C: Are th e individuals in the prints in A, and the negatives
in B, the same individuals?
Answer: The individuals in th e prints in Set A and th e pr ints from
the negatives of Set B are th e same individual. This again
i s based on the same data as above. Mensuration techniques
provided close correlat ion between the two se ts .
4. Question D: Are th e individuals in the pr ints inC and D th e
same individual?
Answer: The individuals in Set and Set D are th e same individuals.The mensuration data and enhanced images provided close
correlat ion between these two se ts .
5. Question E: Are individuals in A, B, C, an d D the same individual?
Answer: The individuals in a l l four se ts of data do not provide
enough deta i l in the facia l feature for a def in i te answer.
I t i s be lieved that th e individuals in sets A and B areth e same individual . I t is believed that the individualsin se ts C and D are the same individual. However, it is
not possible to posi t ively corre la te the frontal posi t ionphotographs in se ts C and D with the only f rontal posi t ion
photograph of se ts A and B because of the poor qual i ty ofth e one photograph. Therefore, it i s not possible to
determine i f th e individuals in a l l sets are the same.

As per our telephone conversation of several months ago I am
sending you copies of the tramp shots so that vou can determine
if they have been doctored. If you feel that a fee for your
services is warranted please call me at 212-520-3680 and 1 will
remit it fore with.
In the meantime 1offer the following:
Photo marked #1. In this photo 1believe that two blocks of light
appear in front of the short tramp <Hunt's> face. These have been
designed to look like reflections of light. However, on closer
observation it was noted that the block of light may extend over
1

the tall tramp's (Sturgis) jacket. What is more important here is
where the imperfection appears - over the Hunt tramps face.
Photo marked #2. In this photo a brush mark appears over the
Hunt tramps face once again. If this was happenstance, why does
this imperfection appear again over the Hunt tramp's face? Note
how the brush stroke definitely extends over the Sturgis' tramps
face. This is the most compelling evidence the photos were
doctored. someone goofed and the stroke extended too far.
Photo marked #3. 1do not believe this is Hunt's ear. Note the art
knife notch that the arrow is pointing to. This ear is quite similar
to the tramps ear in photo #1. was it spliced in because the
photograph of it was taken under identical lighting conditions?
If this is not convincing compare this ear with the bit of ear
protrusion that is visible, after close inspection, in photo #4. Note
hat brim, hair, ear. someone overlooked this minor detail. Hunt's
wing-like ear, perhaps the most distinguished feature about HuntI
is visible. Hunt had plastic surgery done on this ear later onI
according to the HSCA report.
Photo marked #5. The Hunt tramp's ear aga;n I,- O O k ~ ~ U s o \ c i o u sIke that of the Sturgis tramp. Due to the liQnt· v

hard to say, but this is a possibility.
I am not asking you to make any determination as to whether
the tramps are Hunt, sturgis and Carswell (Carswell's real name
was David Lemar Christ and he was a CIA expert at modified
weaponry, according the latest 1992 JFK Documents Act release>.
I am only asking you to determine if any of the photos had been
doctored. I am asking you to perform this examination because
the HSCA never did so, despite my repeated requests. The FBI
examined the shots for doctoring and reported that although it
could find none, the possibility existed the photos were doctored
in an undetectable manner. This was after FBI Director Kelley
order his agents to "Lay these allegations to rest." When the
Rockefeller commission received this report, the statement about
the doctoring being undetectable was omitted. In any event 1
have included my chapter about the tramp shots from my new
book, case Reopened Date Base 1.It should be noted that it is my belief from our conversation
that you, like the vast majority of Americans, are an honest man.
