death certificate

If you review the Death Certificate you notice that the document is branded with the "Births, Deaths and Marriages Registration Act 1995" but the date of death is listed as 1983...and is confirmed in the registration number in the upper right hand corner.

That could be a mistake if they just found a form and edited it without checking. I also noticed that at the bottom it's dated 1st June 1983, but the burial isn't until August. Who has ever know someone not be buried until 2 months after they died? Normally it's 2 weeks at most. I could be looking too far into that though.

Counting out the chances of a mistake there seems to be 2 main options.

  • John Henry isn't dead, or at least didn't died until after '95
  • Time travel is involved (the stamp on the photo may have something to do with this also)

I would agree with the unintentional mistake. If your going to fake a death, 12 years seems a bit too much of a stretch to be doable, unless of course the time travel theory proves true. The two month gap between the date of death and the burial is definitely worth keeping an eye on. Perhaps for experimentation or a link with the time travel idea.

Oh yeah, if a death is suspicious then the autopsy and investigation may take a while before te body is allowed to be buried as it is classed as evidence.

Finally one that caught my eye, been so long I forgot my old account details.

Regarding the death, an extended period between death and burial is not uncommon if it relates to a crime like murder, where an extended post mortem is required and the body may be needed for further tests.

*edit* Yeah, what knarF said Confused

I can't speak for anyone else, but I can say that I haven't heard back from them.

youtube trailer hints

Couple of things, watched the trailer again, and in the scene where the guy gets popped on the bridge, I recognized the buildings in the background as being on the upper east side of Manhattan. More important I think, just before the hit, the vic gets a call on his cellphone, displays JAKO6ZLADD3R (Jacob's Ladder?). Could that be the crypto key? Also here's the link to the location. (see the picture with the water tower)

Re: youtube trailer hints

this gets better and better, neither the water tower or the bridge in the video show up in google maps, you need to go to satellite and search for them, here's the map co-ordinates

40.842609,-73.932538

High Bridge is up in the Bronx - northern part of the city. The other map with the arrows is in Brooklyn - the southern part of the city.

69th infantry
from the citation J. Quinn

the 69th Infantry didn't fight in Europe during WWII so there doesn't appear to be anything to research there. the 69th Armor (Karl Justice) did fight in Nam, still looking

69th infantry

The unit in the citation for the aussie is incorrect. It's not the 69th Inf Reg, it should be the 69th Inf Div. Which operated in the Rhineland and eastern Europe from in combat from 27FEB1945 to VE day. 25APR1945 partols contacted Russian forces @ Riesa & Targau (from wikipedia)
