Saw Holmes Typing Lt. Commander A. Thomas, a radiation physicist in Bethesda's radiology department, told the jury that he had met Col. Holmes several times during his hospitalizations in July and October of 1979 when the patient came down to the nuclear medicine department to join Dr. Neilson for lunch.
On one occasion in 1979 while the weather was warm and naval personnel were still in their summer white uniforms, Thomas recalled, the colonel came alone to his office and asked if he could use a typewriter. Thomas said he gave the colonel his IBM Selectric II model and showed Holmes how to use its correcting features.
Thomas, who described himself as a Scotchman by nature, testified that he kept a pile of scratch paper from the xerox copying room down the hall next to his desk, scratch paper that he trimmed with a paper cutter before using it in preparing lecture hand-out materials. ‘‘I offered him bond paper but Col. Holmes said what was in the box was sufficient for his purposes,” Thomas testified. He reported that the colonel then took a piece of old xeroxed scratch paper from the box and proceeded to type.
