The FBI, with assistance from the Secret Service, Dallas Police and Dallas County surveyor Robert West, tried to determine for the Warren Commission exactly how the assassination happened during a 1964 visit to Dealey Plaza. Their work included re-creating the positions of the limousine at the time of the shooting, including the angles and distances involved. Barker's color pictures are the only known color images of investigators at work that day. - Gary Mack, Curator
