Secret Service Agent No. 9

This is the continuation of a monthlong series leading up to the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy's assassination on Nov. 22, 1963. 

If you haven't noticed by now, Clint Hill will be all over television this month.

Assigned to protect Jackie Kennedy, the Secret Service agent harbored feelings of guilt for years. Nowhere was this more prevalent than in the 1975 interview he filmed for "60 Minutes" with the late Mike Wallace.

Hill blamed himself for years, convinced that had he acted a split-second faster, he could have saved President John F. Kennedy.

If you can watch this clip and are failed to be moved by it, I don't particularly want to make your acquaintance.

Hill was rocked with guilt for years and finally found catharsis through the help from a clinician.

As far as I'm concerned, he's a patriot who did the best he could that awful day in Dallas.

11/22/63 -- as it happened

I will be dedicating one blog post a week to the events of Nov. 22, 1963, this month, in the days leading up to the 50th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Today I'd like to share with you a website sent to me by my friend Robert Rogers.  This is the most exhaustive collection of television and radio reports from Nov. 22, 1963, as well as TV and radio coverage and programs in the days and years since the Kennedy assassination.

Be forewarned: If you are a student of the assassination or a news nerd or both, you'll suddenly find that three hours or more have slipped by while you surf this site.

David Von Pein should be commended for his collection. It's the best I've discovered to date.
