Just got done watch interesting doucmentary about his death. But where were you when he was killed?
I was in school (4th grade) in my hometown in eastern NC. They let us out early. I remember walking home and it was a beautiful, clear November day and all us kids were happy that we got out early. I guess we were too young to understand the seriousness of the situation.
I wasn't even born yet :D
Home, my mother answered the phone and started crying, she then turned on the radio, we didn't have television yet.
I was in the navy attending basic electronics school at Great Lakes naval Training Station. I was between classes sitting in the cafe when someone came running in with the news.
I'm sure I was outside playing either at home or my grandparents' house. What I remember though, is the quiet, everyone being indoors. I really didn't understand what had happened, but like all things, I thought it had happened nearby. It's rather like I am watching myself on video (black and white no less) remembering this.
Waiting to be born in 19 months. I'm reading Killing Kennedy by Bill O'Reilly and it's a good read so far. And, so far, if what I'm reading is true, Bill Clinton is a rank amateur compared to JFK. He even deflowered a virgin on Jackie's bed. This guy was a complete dog.
I was running point for G Herbert Walker in Dallas. We got it done.
My wife and I were driving from college to home for the holidays. We had a task to complete as Mom had bought Dad a Chihuahua for his asthma for Christmas and we were to pick it up and pretend it was ours.
The breeder lady told us as we got out of the car.
