There was an interesting story on the news last night about one of the Pearl Harbor survivors who not only witnessed one great American tragedy but was sort of in the middle of another one when Kennedy was assassinated.



The guy in light gray suit in this infamous picture was at Pearl Harbor yesterday and recounted both experiences. He said when he was walking with Lee Harvey he jokingly commented something to the effect it would be his luck if someone tried to shoot Lee while handcuffed to him. Within seconds of that comment Jack Ruby stepped up. . .
