I was cruising E st. in San Bernardino and in front of the first McDonalds when it came across the radio. I had just gotten out of the navy and months earlier I had gotten a formal introduction to him on the carrier Kitty Hawk by the Admiral in charge of the 7th fleet. I was sent over to represent my ship during his inspection of the fleet. What a great man he was...
Later on, when his brother Bobby ran for President, I went to E st. again to hear him speak in the afternoon before his engagement in L.A. I wanted to see if I could shake his hand and tell him I met his brother. (as if he'd care). I couldn't get close enough. Later that night I was watching t.v. and saw that he had been shot also...The Kennedys had more than their share of sorrow...
