This[edit]

This article fails to include the most amazing aspect of the assassination attempt. The Schrank bullet traveled through a thick manuscript and metal glasses case in Teddy Roosevelt's coat. The bullet was slowed substantially, but it still drew a significant amount of blood from Teddy. Instead of going to a hospital, Teddy insisted on giving the speech he was scheduled to give. During the speech, he opened his coat and exposed his blood-soaked shirt. No bullet was going to slow down Teddy Roosevelt.

The current version of the article doesn't say *anything* about the actual assassination attempt. Joel K. 'Jay' Furr 21:38, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added the details of the assassination attempt that I found on Teddy Roosevelt's page. $cammer 01:05, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The paragraph referencing Schrank's mannerisms, such as wandering the streets at night, while colorful and fun, are not supported by sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.47.198.100 (talk) 13:06, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the WikiProject Medicine tag from this article, because it's not really relevant.

John N. Schrank or John F. Schrank[edit]

One of the links from this page (Notes 1, http://www.theodoreroosevelt.org/life/timeline.htm, The Timeline of Theodore Roosevelt) says that his name is John Nepomuk Schrank. The article says it's John Flammand Schrank. Exec. Tassadar (comments, contribs) 13:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
