Bill,

I just looked at my copy of Ray Martinez's book and on page 76 there is a UPI/Corbis picture of him coming out of the Tower on August 1, 1966. Very clearly, you can see the backstrap of a nickel HD in his holster. If anyone could find a copy of that original photo it might be possible to blow up that back strap enough to see the APD marking.

Bob
