I can't begin to tell you all how thrilling today was. I had the opportunity to meet Former Secret Service Agent Clint Hill, the Agent who jumped on the back of the limo when President Kennedy was shot. What a fascinating man! He did a presentation with the co-author of his book in DC and shared his stories about Mrs. Kennedy, the children and President, including the assassination of Kennedy. When he was done, he signed books, took pictures and spoke to everyone. Since my hubby is in the same profession, he spent extra time with us. Absolutely Incredible!

Mrs. Kennedy and me. Agent Jerry Blaine, the Agent assisgned to the president also has a book called The Kennedy Detail. He let me mail it to him and he signed and returned it to me. I had Clint Hill sign that one too. He is such a humble nice man. He still choked up when he talked about the assassination. He said it took them so many years to work through it emotionally but they never got over the guilt. Hearing it all from him touching.

would have been good if you could have recorded him speaking. I'll have to look up these books. Wonder if they have them on Kindle. Bill OReilly has a book coming out in October called "Killing Kennedy". If its anything as good as his book "Killing Lincoln" it will be amazing.
