background audio while looking through these images.THE KENNEDY GALLERY:



First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy's arrival at the Chamber of Commerce

breakfast in Fort Worth, Texas, on November 22, 1963, was deliberately

delayed until after everyone else had been seated, so that Jackie

could make a grand entrance -- and she did, which is depicted in

the photo above. Secret Service agent Clint Hill, who was

assigned to protect Mrs. Kennedy, leads the way.



For video footage taken during the Fort Worth breakfast, plus many

links to assassination-related television and radio coverage,Here's a cropped version of the above photo (in color):President John F. Kennedy in Fort Worth, Texas,

on Friday morning, November 22, 1963.

[Photo Credit: Rob Hinnant and ][Photo Credit: Rob Hinnant]In the photos below, President John F. Kennedy and First Lady

Jacqueline Kennedy are seen arriving at Love Field Airport in Dallas, Texas,

on Friday morning, November 22, 1963.



Texas Governor John Connally and his wife, Nellie, can also be seen in the doorway

of the Boeing 707 in the rarely-published second picture shown below.



Less than one hour later, both President Kennedy and Governor Connally were on stretchers inside Parkland Hospital after having been shot by Lee Harvey Oswald

in Dealey Plaza. The Governor would survive his serious wounds,

the President would not.



The death of John F. Kennedy plunged the nation into a period of unprecedented

grief and mourning, as JFK became the first U.S. President to be

assassinated since William McKinley 62 years earlier.The above photograph was taken just seconds before Jackie Kennedy was handed a bouquet of red roses by Mrs. Earle Cabell (the wife of the Dallas mayor).



This beautiful picture isn't seen very often. It exhibits outstanding color and is one of a series of Love Field photos snapped by White House photographer Cecil Stoughton on that tragic Friday in November 1963 when the nation lost a President.Three more seldom-published color photos, showing the Kennedys

for more details about this photograph.The size of the crowd at Love Field Airport is

readily apparent in these two photos:Another view of JFK & Jackie at Love Field.Four more fabulous pictures of President and Mrs. Kennedy at Love Field.

A lot of photos were taken of the Kennedys that day at the airport,

and these gorgeous pictures below are also kind of rare:

photo nonetheless. Visible in this image are Vice President Lyndon Johnson,

Governor John Connally (standing up in the Presidential limousine),

and reporters Seth Kantor and Robert MacNeil.The President's , with its jump seats still folded

[Photo Credit: The Sixth Floor Museum At Dealey Plaza]This is a really rare motorcade picture -- an aerial view of JFK's limousine in

downtown Dallas. Note that driver Bill Greer has his door open (probably

in an effort to keep the crowd back, because the police motorcycles on

the left side of the car were likely not in their normal positions when this

picture was snapped, due to the heavy crowds on that side of the street).



Also barely visible on the far right side of this photo is Secret Service agent

Clint Hill, who was riding on the rear bumper of the limousine when this

picture was taken. He rode on the bumper when the crowds got very thick,

which occurred approximately four times during the Dallas motorcade.

through the streets of Dallas, Texas, on 11/22/63.Photographer Bob Jackson of the Dallas Times Herald took

this picture near the corner of Main and Ervay Streets in downtown

Dallas on 11/22/63, approximately 3 minutes prior to the assassination.

This is another picture that's not seen too often.
