HERBERT SAWYER, Dallas Police Department, made available the following transcripts of all radio transmissions from Channel 1 and Channel 2, of Dallas Police Radio Station KKB- 364, covering the period 12:20 PM, November 22, 1963 to 6:00 PM, November 24, 1963, as they relate to the assassination of President KENNEDY, the murder of Dallas Police Officer J.D. TIPPIT, investi- gations of assassination and murder, and the security and movement of LEE HARVEY OSWALD to the Dallas County Jail. This was in response to a request made of Inspector SAWYER on March 6, 1964 and was furnished on March 20, 1964: Channel 1 CALLER CONVERSATION [...] 271 271. Disp 271. 271 Could you send a City wrecker to the Triple Underpass: just west of the underpass on Elm to clear a stalled truck from the route of the escort? Disp 10-4. (11:07) 118 118. Disp 118. 118 Could you disregard me on that call? I've got an Air Force truck here that has the President's Seal and Flags in it and he's got to get to the Dallas Trade Mart before the President does -- in about 10 or 15 minutes. I'll escort him out there about Code 2. Disp Disregard the call. (11:08) 118 118. Disp 118. 118 What hundred block of the Stemmons does that Trade Mart run off of? Disp Right at Industrial. (11:09) 271 271 Disp 271 271 Disregard the wrecker at the Triple Underpass. We got a truck to push him out of there. Disp 10-4. (11:16) ----------------------------------------- Note the following: 1. There really *was* a truck stalled on Elm Street. Mercer didn't just make this up. 2. The truck was actually *on* the route of the motorcade. Because of this, it was under police surveilance. 3. The truck is described as being "west" of the Triple Underpass. Some documents, as we shall see, describe the truck and being "in" Dealey Plaza. This may be the result of confusion as to whether the area west of the Triple Underpass is part of "Dealey Plaza." .John
