26. | ![]() | Unidentified radiologist 1912, 14 October (or later) X-Ray of Roosevelt X-ray Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division George Grantham Bain Collection, Call Number: LC-B2- 2449-2 In 2011 David Cory pointed out on the Library of Congress Flickr page for this image that it has been retouched "big-time" with the ribs drawn in and the bullet outlined. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt (Accessed: 14 March 2012) While Roosevelt was campaigning in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on October 14, 1912, a saloonkeeper named John Schrank shot him, but the bullet lodged in his chest only after penetrating his steel eyeglass case and passing through a thick (50 pages) single-folded copy of the speech he was carrying in his jacket. Roosevelt, as an experienced hunter and anatomist, correctly concluded that since he was not coughing blood, the bullet had not completely penetrated the chest wall to his lung, and so declined suggestions he go to the hospital immediately. Instead, he delivered his scheduled speech with blood seeping into his shirt. He spoke for 90 minutes. His opening comments to the gathered crowd were, "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot; but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose." Afterwards, probes and x-ray showed that the bullet had traversed three inches (76 mm) of tissue and lodged in Roosevelt's chest muscle but did not penetrate the pleura, and it would be more dangerous to attempt to remove the bullet than to leave it in place. Roosevelt carried it with him for the rest of his life. |
