Connally's lapel flip at Z224.
The exiting slug missed the lapel by a mile. And in any case it was at Z218 plus or minus a frame or two.
What caused the lapel to flip?

Did the slug exit a bit side-on? In which case it shook the whole coat. And that shaking caused the lapel to stand up at Z218 -- which Zapruder didnt show koz it woz black on black. And then a gust flipped  the lapel further so  that Zapruder did show it.

What have i missed?

The lapel flap can first be seen in Z-223.

Yes, my early postings on this forum were often naive, but i was learning fast (thanx to many smart members here).
And my postings early on in my threads were often wrongish, but got better later in the thread.
For example early on i thort that Hickey's auto burst started at the headshot at Z312, later i realized that the headshot was his last shot (of at least 4 shots).
