The man pictured in the image is a Mr. Hardway who was in his mid-twenties when he worked as an investigator for the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1977-78. In the video, he testifies that the CIA prevented him from seeing several secret documents and later essentially lied that the documents had been reviewed by him.

As for Doctor Don Curtis, he was twenty-six years old when JFK was brought to the Parkland Hospital Emergency Room. I think he is the doctor who performed the tracheostomy on JFK. From my past reading, I believe the tracheostomy opening was placed at the site of the wound at the front of JFK's neck.
