John Connally's first interview after 11/22/63
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP04_lGjkO0
This was Governor Connally's first interview, following the
assassination. Notice that his original recollection was that he turned to his
left and actually saw the President.
That was obviously, incorrect and he changed his story
later, probably at the urging of his wife.

Eisenhower Speaks About Murder of JFK (1963)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyGzVQGgdqw
As each November passes, many Americans still recall the
assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Forty-six Novembers have passed and
so many documentaries, theories, and re-running of film clips have been shown.
While reviewing the many films I have about that day, I came across one that's
seldom seen.
Former President Dwight Eisenhower is interviewed as he
leaves a meeting at the United Nations in New
York City on November 22, 1963. With his unique
perspective on national and international events & history, he gives a
commentary to the reporters about the present and the future of this nation.

A Nation Remembers
A display of artifacts from the state funeral of President
Kennedy - November 22, 2013 - February 23, 2014
http://www.jfklibrary.org/Exhibits/Special-Exhibits/A-Nation-Remembers.aspx
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, thirty-fifth President of the United States, was assassinated on November 22,
1963, in Dallas, Texas.
The people who lived through it remember the moment—where
they were, what they were doing—when the news came. The President had traveled
to Texas on a
political trip; he was riding in an open car with First Lady Jacqueline
Kennedy; there were rifle shots; the motorcade rushed to the nearest hospital,
but the wound was mortal. At 2:38 p.m. eastern standard time, CBS television
news anchor Walter Cronkite removed his glasses, struggling for composure, and
reported the President’s death.
Across the country, everything stopped. It seemed impossible
that the young President who had ushered in a new era of American leadership
with such dash and vision, was suddenly gone. The nation entered a state of
suspended animation over the next three days as it paid its final respects.
President Kennedy’s funeral and procession to Arlington National Cemetery
were filled with the solemn pomp and pageantry befitting an epic tragedy.
Dignitaries from 92 countries attended, some in full military regalia. A
million people lined the streets, while nearly the entire adult population of
the United States
followed the event on television in a shared experience that is seared into the
nation’s memory. If the vile act of the assassination shook the nation, the
beauty and decorum of the state funeral steadied it.
The official days of mourning passed, history restarted, but
the world was different. James Reston wrote in the New York Times, “What was
killed in Dallas
was not only the president but the promise. The death of youth and the hope of
youth, of the beauty and grace and the touch of magic.”
Lyndon B. Johnson, sworn in as the 36th President that
terrible afternoon in Dallas, later memorialized his predecessor: “It is not
for us to know how many great things he might have accomplished . . . but he
lived long enough and well enough to rekindle our spirit, renew our faith and
reaffirm our commitment as a people to the great purpose for which this nation
was created.”
The Riderless Horse—Ancient Symbol of a Fallen Warrior
In the funeral procession, a magnificent black gelding, with
an empty saddle, saber, and boots reversed in the stirrups, followed the caisson
bearing the President’s coffin. The riderless horse is one of the highest
military honors bestowed upon the fallen.
The horse, named Black Jack, was from the Army’s oldest
active infantry unit, the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment, known as The Old Guard. He
alone defied the strict military discipline of the day with his rowdy behavior:
prancing, throwing his head, and dancing around his walker, the 19-year-old
soldier who was sure he would be sent to Greenland
if the horse got loose.
After the funeral, Mrs. Kennedy, an avid horsewoman,
expressed an interest in Black Jack. Within hours, the horse’s saddle and
blanket, and the boots and saber were delivered to her at the White House. They
remain part of the Kennedy Library’s permanent collection and are displayed
here for the first time.
Flag that draped the coffin of President Kennedy, November
23—25, 1963
John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, Boston, Massachusetts
Arriving at Andrews Air Force Base from Dallas
on Friday evening, November 22, President Kennedy’s body was taken to Bethesda Naval Hospital,
where an autopsy was performed and the body was prepared for burial. In the
early morning hours of Saturday, November 23, moments before the President’s
casket left the hospital for the White House, a team of casket bearers unfolded
this flag and draped it over the coffin. There it remained until the afternoon
of Monday, November 25, when the casket team stood over the President’s grave
and folded the flag in one of the day’s final ceremonial tributes. The flag was
handed to the Superintendent of Arlington National Cemetery, Jack Metzler, who
then presented it to Mrs. Kennedy.
“Mrs. Kennedy, this flag is presented to you in the name of
a most mournful nation
. . . Please accept
it.”
--Superintendent of Arlington National Cemetery
Jack Metzler
Green Beret placed on
President Kennedy’s grave by Command Sergeant Major Francis Ruddy, November 25,
1963
John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, Boston, Massachusetts
Recognizing the need for the United States to conduct
unconventional warfare, President Kennedy had championed the role of the U.S.
Army Special Forces. He embraced the Green Beret, worn by the Special Forces
troops, calling it “a symbol of excellence, a badge of courage, [and] a mark of
distinction in the fight for freedom. Command Sergeant Major Francis Ruddy
removed this beret from his head and placed it at the President’s gravesite in
the late afternoon of Monday, November 25. “He gave us the beret,” Ruddy said
later, “and we thought it fitting to give one back to him.
“He gave us the beret, and we thought it fitting to give one
back to him.”
