I'm sure Woodward, who seemed to adore the Kennedys, felt she had made such a connection. The last bystanders Kennedy saw were more likely the Newman family or the men on the steps. The President seems to be peering at the Umbrella Man in Z225 and the Umbrella Man is standing well to the south of Woodward.
She must be talking about the first hand wave if she's correct about the Kennedys looking around as if bewildered after the first shot. The President turns his head rightward in the late-Z150s-to-early Z160s. Mrs. Kennedy turns her head rightward in the Z170s; Woodward probably could see some of Jackie's pillbox hat. That's the only time we know for sure the Kennedys looked around before they went behind the sign. When they emerge from behind the sign a second later, their heads are still as they were before they went behind the sign.
Who--among the witnesses reporting three distinct shots--said they saw Kennedy not smiling and waving after the first shot?
"Mrs. Kennedy turns her head rightward in the Z170s;"This is very disingenuous of you Jerry.
Jackie
begins to turn her head in the z170's but is not looking to her right until around z190.
Woodward states they were both looking directly in her direction which is only possible around z190.
Adams also states that both JFK and Jackie turn to their right - not in response to a shot but to someone calling out to them.
Woodward - "But
we started clapping and cheering and both he and Mrs. Kennedy turned, and smiled and waved, directly at us…"
Adams - "...
somebody in the crowd called to the late President, because he and his wife both turned abruptly and faced the building..."
Adams is describing exactly the same moment Woodward is describing.
Both JFK and Jackie turn to face the people calling.
The only time this happens is when Jackie is facing right, @z190
LATER EDIT;
"The President turns his head rightward in the late-Z150s-to-early Z160s."This has got nothing to do with the wave. It's got nothing to do with anything.
JFK does not respond to Woodward and co. calling out until @ z170
