This is something I have noticed as a chiropractor concerning Oswald's postural habits, which are deeply ingrained in everyone. He had the habit of holding his head slightly turned to his left. It was just a little quirk, and I'm sure he wasn't even aware of it.
He also had the habit of clasping his hands in front of his body, which he did a heck of a lot. We have many pictures of him doing it in the last two days of his life, including the last moment when Jack Ruby shot him. He did it at the Dallas PD, and he was doing it in the doorway of the Book Depository when he was photographed by James Altgens.
And you can see both of these habits manifested in this collage. One is from the doorway, and the other was just before he entered the police lineup. In both, you can see him clasping his hands, left over right. And in both, you can see that he's got his head turned a little bit to his left. It's off-center. Admittedly, it's slight, but it's there on both, and the vertical plumb line proves it. On both, his head is tweaked a little bit to his left, which is to our right. Again, he wasn't deliberately doing it, and he wasn't even conscious of it, I'm sure. But, these neuromuscular habits are very deep-seated. They are part and parcel of who we are. And they get habituated and reinforced over the course of a lifetime. It would be very hard to break such a habit even if you tried- and he wasn't trying. He was doing the same thing in both places. He was comporting himself the same way. It is his bodily signature that we're seeing on both sides. That's him- Lee Harvey Oswald- on both sides, and there is no doubt about it.
