I was in the second grade at Glen Haven Elementary school in Decatur, Georgia when our principal came over the intercom and announced the event that had just happened. You could tell by his voice that he was shaken. The principal announced that he would give us any further updates as he learned them. A short time later our principal announced on the intercom the tragic news and the unhappy ending that All Americans living then remembers to this day, those old enough to remember. Our principal's voice told that he was emotionally shaken. I was 7 years old and remember this tragic chapter in our nation's History well.

Sixth grade at Spring Lake Elementary School (NC). Third desk in the fourth row. The principal put the news on the radio then immediately cut it off. About 5 minutes later, it came back on with verification of the news. Growing up beside Fort Bragg, NC, we were all saddened and a little afraid of what was going to happen next.

About 15 years ago(before my wife).... I started dating a train wreck from Bulgaria.
Her name was Marina. First words out my Mothers mouth.... “That was LHO wife’s name.”
My mom made it a point to not like her because of that.
Moms are always right.

I was a senior in high school, walking from one class to another when a friend told me about what happened. At first I thought he was joking but soon found out he wasn't.

I was in 3rd grade Lake Park Elementary School, Naples Florida
It was announced over the intercom.
Our teach asked us to bow our heads for prayer.
Can you imagine a teacher asking that today!
Real sad day for our Country!!

Yeah, Oswald got taken out. Jack Ruby, his assassin, died of cancer like four years later. Took his secrets to his grave. There were a lot of connections and coverups. One thing seems for sure, the Guvment's official story stinks. We may never know. I don't know the extent of the conspiracy, but no doubt, one exists. MLK, Bobby. I think there were others, but don't remember. A bad decade to be out of the loop.
