The explanation for their presence is that a call went out to off duty agents of many agencies to provide extra security that day. So there was no official SS presence on the ground in Dealey Plaza just unnamed volunteers. The SS could have determined which of their agents was there simply by asking all of them so why do we not have witness statements from these two. First hand accounts of the assassination and closest to the knoll. Two people claim to be SS you would think the agency would want to verify who they were.
Army SOP is that a sniper team deploys with a security element. I think that was the role of the fake SS behind the fence. They delayed and created confusion to allow the perps to escape.
The ARRB investigated the activities of the 112th at great length; its Dallas detachment was not activated in any sort of security mode and interviews with its personnel determined that other than Powell, who was on leave, none were in the area. Unfortunately all the dialog about the MI group takes attention from the people with fake credentials who were behind there, acting in a tactical team effort just as Chris describes...and creating a diversion. Powell was never behind the fence, he was on Houston, went to the corner, spoke to Brennan, and then went inside the building. Unfortunately the HSCA interviewed the 112th officer who was acting as G2 rather than the officer they should have who was in charge of operations - and Jones just confused them more.
What I find interesting about this is that critics can attempt to get at the truth of the matter, yet believers simply deny the basic facts. The testimony shows quite clearly that someone identified himself as Secret Service.
This shows that the assassination was a planned event, and that it was planned not by Mafia thugs, who'd have no idea about how to help their shooters get away, but by trained assassins.
Oswald was hardly a "trained assassin" - but he was a very useful patsy. Because of his intelligence connections, he virtually forced a coverup - thus covering up the real assassins, and preventing any real investigation into the murder.
