Subject: Assignment on
November 22, 1963
Sir:
On November 22, 1963 at approximately 12:45 P.M., I heard from
a Reserve Officer that the President had been shot. I checked
with the dispatcher's office immediately and was informed that
additional officers were needed at the Texas School Book Depos-
itory building.
Lieutenant Erich Kaminski and I arrived at the Texas School Book
Depository building shortly after being informed of the need for
additional officers. I was instructed by Chief Lumpkin, upon
arrival, to proceed to the sixth floor. There I assisted in
searching for additional evidence on this floor.
Later, Chief Lumpkin put me in charge of a search team and
instructed me to start on the roof and work down to the basement
making a thorough and complete search of all floors. When this
assignment was completed, I was relieved by Chief Lumpkin and
told to report to my office.
I received no further instructions and ended my tour of duty at
the regular time.
Respectfully submitted,
4/4
W. F. DYSON, Lieutenant
