What historical event fascinates you the most?

I was ten years old. It was during Geography class when the principal of Mackinaw Middle School in Saginaw, Michigan, made the announcement President Kennedy had been shot. A few minutes later he told us the president was dead.

Here is a list of books I have read, several, more than once.

In 1977, I personally visited Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. It’s impossible to describe the feelings I had as I looked at the Texas School Book Depository, stood behind the picket fence on the grassy knoll, saw the pedestal where Abraham Zapruder was standing as he filmed the assassination, and stared at the spot where President John F. Kennedy’s head literally exploded.

It’s difficult to describe the feelings I have now, sixty-one years to the day after the president was murdered, knowing there are still files being withheld from the public.

I have a lot of questions that will probably never be answered.
