1. This was when John Jr. became a secret QANON agent?

7. LOL! Must be!

[Sanity Claws]

2. Is the man with his back to us LBJ?

LBJ was not an aide but may have been involved in discussions.

6. Could be Secretary of State Dean Rusk.

3. Just to reflect on changes

Back then, it was fully expected that a picture like this would be all white men.

8. Seems like 100 years ago.

But it was only 58.

9. Glad I have some remembrance of those years, from my childhood.

The assassination changed everything, and I don't think the country ever recovered.

12. Today's world bears no resemblance to that time.

Some better. Some a lot worse. I only saw life through a 7 year old perspective. I just remember that I liked JFK. Yes, it does seem like 100 years ago.

13. I was in high school biology class when the announcement came in over the speaker.

That JFK had been killed. I am not Sheldon Cooper, so I was older than 7.

10. I think, far right in picture is Kenneth O'Donnell, special assistant

and appointments secretary.

11. Per Twitter: Left are McGeorge Bundy and Llewelyn Thompson. In front of Kennedy is Dean Rusk.

14. I was a Jr in high school

I remember the Kennedy years as people getting into jogging and going for walks and becoming exercise nuts. During the Cuban missile crisis, we stood in line outside the lunchroom, wondering if nukes would soon vaporize us. I skipped school, when Kennedy came to DaLLas to see his motorcade, but buses were pulled to the side of the road right in front of me. So I didn't get to see him, when he drove by.

My Father was a Dallas cop. His office was downtown in Dallas city hall. After they caught Lee Harvey Oswald, there was a press conference in city hall. My father, who was a Lt. was present, and he asked his Capt what was Jack Ruby doing at the press conference, because Ruby wasn't a reporter. His Capt said, "That's just Jack Ruby, probably here to bail out one of his girls." Ruby had a strip club downtown, and apparently was frequently bailing out his girls for 1 thing or another. Of course, Ruby was in city hall that day to shoot Oswald.
