McNamara, impressive as usual, ticked off a few awesome facts of U.S. nuclear power: more than 2,000 atomic warheads ready in case of war, a 100% increase in two years; 500 SAC bombers and 500 intercontinental missiles, with 1,000 more missiles by 1966; a new 155-mm. nuclear howitzer to boost the power of Army ground forces, whose manpower has been raised by 45% within two years.

Serial number records showed that Oswald's was the same rifle that had been found...

On display in Caracas was an arsenal of three tons of F.A.L.N. weapons: 31 submachine guns, five 60-mm. mortars, 20 bazookas, 28 packages of plastic explosives, 81 Belgian automatic rifles with 20,000 rounds of ammunition.
