Clint Hill, Author, "Mrs. Kennedy and Me"
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 май 2012
- Former United States Secret Service agent Clint Hill discusses his recent historical narrative titled "Mrs. Kennedy and Me." Hill describes the period of time he was assigned to guard Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy, wife of John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States. His protective detail assignment begins shortly after Kennedy's election as President in November 1960, until after the election of Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
I ABSOLUTELY love Mr. Hill. Out of ALL the agents & law enforcement there that day, Mr. Hill was the ONLY one to re-act, THE ONLY ONE. !! I have every book he has ever written. Did y'all know he was given up for adoption at 3 months. But I feel it was more an act of love on his mother's part. Do not forget, it was at the time of the Great Depressionwhen for a child to exist, often meant being placed in a home, where the parents could be sure the child would have a steady supply of food. There should be a medal called the "Clint Hill medal for bravery". Some kind of acknowledment for a life well lived. He is the MOST brutally honest, decent, compassionate and most of all, the MOST discreet man who has walked this planet. To know where he worked & for whom, you KNOW this man could, no doubt write a tome about secrets.....But NOT this man, EVER. DISCREET, DECENT & BRUTALLY HONEST !!! I LOVE YOU, MR. HILL !!!
There SHOULD BE someone somewhere willing to spend time with those overwhelmed with unbearable remorse that life has dealt them. Even Ike. He might, during the years of walking the streets in tears, have done himself in.
Incredible accurate memory.
Unbelievable!
I’m with ya! I absolutely adore him. A brave, humble and genuine gentleman 🌟

This is the most personal and transparent and interview with Mr. Hill. It had to have been the best of times and the worst of times...I pray he is well.
I loved this book so much I didn’t want it to end. Clint Hill was dedicated to protecting Jacqueline at all costs. A true gentleman and she in return treated him so well.

I read it too and it was very interesting.
Mr. Hill, you are total gem; your dedication to Mrs. Kennedy and the children is beautiful...I read your book twice.......bless you and thank you for sharing your most private and carefully chosen moments with Mrs. Kennedy.....I think she might think it was ok.
Thank. You. Clint. For. You. And. Your. Loyalty. To. Jackie. And. Her. Children. You. Are. Heaven. Sent. God. Bless. You. Sir. Now. And. Manyyyyyy. Years. To. Come. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. And. Miss. You. Always. Amen 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Christine Munn, I heard that Caroline actually gave Clint Hill her blessing on writing the book. I agree - it’s a wonderful tribute to Jackie.

This was an absolutely wonderful book. He is by far an amazing individual.
Wonderful interview. Mr. Hill was allowed to answer the questions.
Beautiful guy. Fantastic book. Thank you for sharing your story.
Fantastic interview.....Clint Hill is a class act !
Thank you Mr. Hill for taking care of Jackie! Your honesty, knowledge and dignity
What an honourable gentleman! True heroes do not come in fancy packages, but Mr. Hill and Mr. Armstrong are the true definitions of heroes!
Mr Hill always come across as the consumate gentleman, discreet and honourable.
Mr Clint Hill...you are such an honorable man.....after all the gossip about Mrs Kennedy.....her secrets are safe with you....God Bless You...!!!!
+ krstr 5960,
Thank you - finally a comment from someone with a brain!
Clint is an old friend. Just like an unwashed pair of dirty undies.
Secrets get exposed by Almighty God, even decades later.
thank good ness hes able to capitalise n books and interviews when he dident do a thing to help for 50 years
I can’t stop stop watching you! Your book was terrific!
Clint Hill is from my town! He's fascinating to listen to.
A classy guy and a wonderful interview. Loved the book.
Clint Hill is a great hero of the 20th century. He valiantly and at complete risk of his own life made an almost super-human effort to shield both the President and First Lady from repeated gunshots. I have enormous respect for Mr. Hill and thank him for the historical accounts he has shared in his three books.
No he did not! He ran over AFTER all 3 shots! The rest of the SS did nothing!!
@@jenniferwise8515 jfk probably alive if they guard him properly.
@@gandalfthewhite2252 look at the amount of Secret Service agents on the LBJ car vs JFK.
☂️
@@jenniferwise8515 That's because Lyndon B. Johnson knew that the ambush was right around the corner. It was LBJ's man who told Clint and JFK's agent that they were not to ride on the step had they been where they should have been the out come may have been different.
I just finished reading a book. It was so fantastic so I had to reread again . JBK was so down to earth and caring for people who worked for her !
Thanks for sharing your story Clint, glad you were able to
GOD bless you Clint Hill. You did your job to the best of your ability. You served your country...You loved your country. And you loved the President and Mrs. Kennedy. Thank you Mr. Hill. GOD bless you.
Excellent thank you for you talking about this special treats with Mrs KENNEDY 💞🙏🥰❤️💕😞
I have great respect for Clint Hill. You could tell he had tremendous loyalty for Mrs. Kennedy especially when the interviewer questioned him about JFK'S dalliances. You could tell he would do anything to protect her and her character.
I loved this book. Thank-you Mr Hill!
Oh he tried - and he tried - to get him to say there was more to his relationship than business. So obvious. I admire Mr Hill for his devotion & ability to do the right thing.
You are an amazing man, mr Hill
OMG!! Listen to that conversation between Johnson and Jackie. And it was only a month later. I can't believe what I heard.
Great book. Well written and interesting. This is a great guy who deserves peace and a good life; I hope he gets it.
Peace
He is doing quite well now. He’s 90 years old, has written 4 books (the latest will be published in October, 2022), and last year (2021), married his co-author, Lisa McCubbin. It was she who guided him through those horrible memories of Dallas, and helped him regain his mental health.
this is, by far, the most detailed interview with Clint to date
Great man... very impressed. They don't make men like this very often.
When you give honour to your service and to the people you serve and to your country.
A dedicated Gentleman in every sense of the word. I purchased his book 'Me and Mrs Kennedy'a couple of years ago. Thank God this has been recorded for all to see and hear. I saulte him. An inspiration to the World. John (Australia). His Mother and parents would be extremely proud of him.
This guy has seen/heard things we will never have the privilege to know.
As it should be.
Thanks, All & MR. CLINT HILL: I just finished your Book, “ MY TRAVELS WITH MRS KENNEDY”! I enjoyed the background writings, addendas from Logs, & especially, the Photos.. We followed much of these trips / parties/NEWS closely: both , before & After Assassin, etc. Interestingly, the Announcements came in my PHYSICS CLASS, JUNIOR year of High School…a gut wrenching time….Great work, sharing Photos & Comments….lot of tears & thoughts.
I love this man! He is a true honorable man!
*This video is Priceless.* Having been just before my 5th Birthday when this happened in 1963, *"I appreciate this man having come forward to express the facts for our President his wife, their children, and "We the People", have been so unnecessarily inundated with 80/20."*
80% fiction and produced drama applied on less than 20% events.
It feels cleansing to have the real value of the experiences he observed. The real life experiences reflected.
I appreciate this so ...
Mr. Hill, to me, you are a wonderful person. Looking back at the tapes of the assassination, have you ever noticed that of all the people around the president and Mrs. Kennedy, you were the only person who responded in any way towards the event. I've heard that you felt that you failed. I don't see it that way at all. Jackie survived. She was your assignment. You will always be a hero to me. I know that you've struggled terribly over the years. I hope that you will have the deep peace that only God gives. Well done good and faithful servant.
Such tragedy. Thank you Mr Hill
Very interesting interview. Seems to me this man is trustable, loyal and kept his integrity high also after his service until his older days.
I'm 61 in 2023 and all of my life I had a great deal of respect for the persons from this generation.. Can you imagine who their parents must have been. We are so modern now..lately the world has become very divided. Very interesting times.. Almost impossible to conceive how much the numerous factors that influence people are effecting a history that we are now living. I'm speaking culturally, politically, foreign affairs, and family amount so many other institutions.. Something feels like its moving too fast..I feel very concerned. I think everyone has more in common than not uncommon; especially, things that make us humane and things that matter.. Everyone has become so fearful of certain others.. Like if society collapsed it would be like madmax. I hope that's not how it would be..I do believe that decent people would have to defend themselves against others who may be more angry and violent. Ok. How did I get to this point? Oh yeah; things are changing so fast.
I have the utmost great respect for the U.S. Secret Service.
But they did fall short immensely on the fateful day in Dealy Plaza. . . missing a building that was recognizable even to a 14-year-old as clearly perhaps the most dangerous for a President to pass by between D,C. and . . . anywhere. The SS had really improved its its act by some five tears later--even scoping out the appearance of a rifle entering a moving van some 16 miles away a matter of days before the President was to be in town. The problem in '63 was that basic things that should have been recognized and have caused the TSD to be locked down were not. For one, there was virtually no hazard prior to Houston Street because the parade was not out to high-skill, white collar areas until Dealy, I still regret not advising the SS of what I feared, but an ignorant anti-Catholic--following mindlessly after her virulent anti-Catholic father in St. Louis decades before would have stymied any such attempt by just a kid like this one.
best Hill interview eva!
Courageous + Loyal + Dedicated + Humble + Competent + Intelligent = Clint Hill
Clint will forever be the most famous SS agent ever.
Lovely, discrete, intelligent fellow...thank you.
awesome guy, the best. bless u sir for ur service...
Hill is the only agent who can hold his head up from that awful day
I respect this man because the legendary Jackie respected him !
I never knew Jackie and JFK knew Onassis during their marriage O.o

what a gentleman. A true hero.
A hero?
In what capacity?
Mr. Hill, if you happen to be reading this, thank you so much for your brilliant book. Its an absolutely wonderful and moving piece of work and a great contribution to history.
I lived in the same apartment complex in Alexandria Virginia as this man and I was the family's paperboy back in 63-64 Met him once shortly after the assassination when I was collecting at the end of the month. He opened the door and the apt was completely dark except for one table lamp in the back of the room. He immediately called for his wife and then went and stood against the table with the lamp while his wife paid me. i will never forget his silhouette head down hands in his pockets waiting for me to leave. Spooky!
That’s heartbreaking.
Poor guy was in so much agony at the time. Saw an interview with him and his wife about five years after and I almost threw up seeing his pain. What a human being!
He loved her for sure - but then, who didn't. I've read countless books now, and all JFK's friends loved Jackie. Apparently, though shy, she was funny and fun to be with when she liked you. Even though she was cheap with salary, she had moments of great affection for all who worked for her, and as many said, really charmed the guys. JFK charmed both sexes also. Great book. Loved the stories of the Kennedy's escaping the Secret Service.
This was a fascinating interview. Thank you.
Mr. Hill … still sharp as a tack.
Mr. Hill is a national treasure. God bless you and give you peace.
Brian Lamb is a great interviewer. Let's the guest tell their story.
Clint Hill. The only guy that tried to do anything.
Bullshit. He is just the most committed actor on the cast. He was compromised as were other SS officers onthe detail. That is why JFK died that day. Had he and other agents NOT been compromised, the assassination would have been called off.
@@paystarbuzzy exactly right.
☂️
@@paystarbuzzy Clint Hill wasn't on the presiden't protection at all, but on Mrs Kennedy's, and he shoved her back in the car when she was climbing around
Living through the time period, & devastating sadness of Nov 63. I found this discussion to be insightful & informative.
I am sure Mr. Hill knows very well about Jackie's tobacco addiction ~ not that there was anything wrong with it. It is reported she had 'a three packs of cigarettes a day habit' (for forty years!)edit | Seems Mr. Clint Hill has never ever sensationalized his work with the 5 presidents and their family lives and respects their privacy and memory to this day. He is an unusually fine gentleman.
James B She smoked while pregnant. That is frowned upon today. She had a miscarriage, a still born child and than a child with lung issues that caused his death.
@@mcheatle8270 everybody smoked during pregnancy in those times, I did too, ... my doctor never even expressed concern,, and that was late seventies
Notice that his responses are direct and immediate, a template many of us might do well to follow.
Clint Hill - my personal hero.
This was a very good interview. I enjoyed it. Plan to read the book. :)
This video shows a personal side of Mr. Clint Hill. He is a very calm, full of Integrity, very wise and a person of few words. Once he said after feeling guilty of not reaching to cover JFK in Dalas " I wish i was not born". But he has done the very best he could. He would wonder having looking some assaiation such as Anwar Sadat of Egypt, Prime Minister Indra Gandy, Prime Minister Golda Meir of Israel, where the agents were better placed to protect their subjects.
Thank you, this was an excellent interview.
agent hill class act a mans man,was willing to give his life to do his job,
One can put a spin on things anyway they want after the fact. The secret service failed to protect the president.
I’ve been trying to find this book!
Clint Hill saved Jackie when she was on the back of the trunk of the car in Dallas and was her trusted confidant her secrets will go to the grave with him. He did not sell out.
The American people deserve to know who was involved in
JFK's murder as well.
Jackie almost sounded like Marilyn there for a second
Clint Hill was one of the good ones...
Jackie didn't want to go to Texas...but needed to go because Jack was beginning his run for 64... She requested Clint to again be her personal guard...she secretly smoked cigarettes and bummed them from Clint, they would smoke together as smokers do form a bond with one another....she probably smoked quite a few after that trip...Clint was infatuated with Jackie, not hard to do. This information came from Jack's secretary Evelyn Lincoln...
Great book!
Clint Hill was a real boss and gentleman. Wish he knew that even if he had wrapped himself around JFK's head, it still would have all unfolded the way that it did.
This man is a Credit to the Secret Service and the United States of America!
LBJ tried to be nice talking to Jackie. Obviously she felt uncomfortable and couldn't wait to get off the phone.
A few things he said were extremely creepy, especially the reference to the FBI. I’d want to get off the phone quickly as well.
This is a wonderful book. I personally believe he was in love with her. Read the book, decide for yourself.
The way he looked at her in several of the pics, I think he was too. I also believe they had a love affair.
@@janetcarlson31 why would you need to say that at this time????
Why does it sound like LBJ is flirting with Jackie??? Is it only me??
he had reporters in Oval Office during this phone call.... Jackie found out about it later...
He was not a very nice man, to put it mildly.
Just think . Just think. And read too.
Just think And now we have a tank that the President rides in as a result. We can't blame Clint Hill at all. It's all speculation that if he acted a microsecond faster, things would have been different. Even if Hill didn't slip as he tried to jump on the back of the vehicle carrying President Kennedy, would that have made any significant difference?
The Secret Service was understaffed with newbies. Did nobody foresee the danger of the President riding in a convertible car with no protection? Back in the 60s, it was unheard of. But that does not forgive the planning needed because the event was foreseeable.
It took the Kennedy assassination to get to the point for the protection needed to oversee the President as of today. It may cost millions every time the President leaves the White House, but what are the alternatives?
NO!!! I thought so too!!! Her long pauses before responding, you could tell she was uneasy!! That blew my mind, it was almost a month to the day her husband was killed. He gave me the creeps!!
Clint is 90 now.
An American 🇺🇸 hero
Palamara is a great researcher-Hill must respect the heck out of him to mention him BOTH times he appears on their channel
love your work, Vince
You can still see the guilt and disappointment on his face. Guilt and disappointment about failing to protect a president
Very good book. Mrs Kennedy was an interesting person. All these conspiracy comments just prove that everyone cant seem to believe that one moron can change history. Everyone wants to think that cant happen so they feel the need to find cover ups etc that dont exist. Kinda sad. Anyway, his book is interesting, takes me back to the 60's.
These are not conspiracy theories these were two Dr's who attended to President Kennedy when he came into Trauma Room1 they were surgeons and seen hundreds of gunshot wounds they didn't say anything at the begining because there medical careers were threatened but 30 yrs later Dr Crenshaw DrMacllen both agree there two wounds to the President both were entry wounds meaning he was shot from the front one wound was in the throat and the fatal shot that obliterated the right hemisphere of his brain his occipital perietal area completely empty it was only until Dr Kent Clark came in who was the head of Nuerosurgery at Parkland who shook his head and concurred with Dr.crenshaw and MaCallen that the President was declared dead
Did anybody else see Clint walk on water?
do you have a reason for saying something like that?
I can't understand why anyone would discredit Clint Hill like I see that some do in their comments?? He was THERE, he's a fountain of information, he's not done anything wrong!?! Remember, we're the ones that's asking for info, right? Why shouldn't he tell his story, and get paid, since we're asking??? Clint Hill is only human, and doesen't act any different than all of us would do if we were in his shoes back in 1963.....you know the date!!!!
They should make a movie about this guy, he comes across as such a decent chap - Jack and Jackie are American Royalty
The secret service definitely phoned it in that day. Surely someone should have realised when all of the usual layers of security were systematically and publicly stripped away. If I were blaming anyone it'd be the Detail.
ONE thing that might have been able for Clint to do : That is to 'bellow'..."Get Down, Pull him DOWN..." as soon as Clint noticed the unusual action up front in the Limo...
President Kennedy wore a back brace so hard and wrapped in ace bandages, it was impossible for him to bend or slump. If he had been able too, it might have saved his life.
I read something in the general secret service book (kennedy detail) too that says that maybe the driver (greer) thought the first or 2nd gunshot were a car back fire (SERIOUSLY) they had no clue it was gunshot!
Outstanding
Interesting interview,but trod very lightly on the assassination.A question that i would have liked ask him concerns the activities of the secret service detail on the eve of the assassination. In a couple of documentaries the detail are said to be partying in a night club True or false and was Clint there ?
He’s mentioned before his sunglasses flew off his head when the car accelerated, and Mrs. Kennedy’s hat has been missing since that day. I’ve always wondered who has these articles, and if they’ll ever come to light?
Mrs. Kennedy’s pink hat was secured to her head with “bobby pins”. At Parkland Hospital, Jackie ripped the hat off of her head in frustration. Clint Hill gave Jackies’s hat and purse to Jackie’s personal secretary, Mary Gallagher (who was also at Parkland Hospital) for safekeeping. The hat has not been seen since then. Gallagher, along with all White House employees, was supposed to have signed an agreement to never talk about the Kennedy’s White House years. Jackie trusted Gallagher enough to put her in charge of making sure that all WH employees signed the confidentiality agreement, but Gallagher never signed one herself. Shortly after the assassination, Gallagher wrote the the first book about working for Jackie Kennedy. She had been Jackies’s friend, and and she betrayed Jackie. Although Gallagher claims that the hat somehow was misplaced, I am of the opinion that Mrs. Gallagher probably kept the hat.
The hat and suit Jackie wore were confiscated and are locked away in a vault for a long time, likely due to the fact that the blood stains would have contained traces of the mercury contained in the bullet that caused JFK’s head to explode. Clint Hill said he burned his blood soaked suit also. Interior of the car was completely stripped also and destroyed. All blood evidence gotten rid of real fast 💨
@@lebeautymarq8834Bullshit
In their minds the dangerous part of the motorcade was already over. They were going to make a left turn then get on the highway. The bigger danger to them were people approaching the limo from the packed streets. Next time you're next to two Harley motors. Motors which were echoing off the buildings and structures around them, that you'd clearly be able to hear a gunshot, and from where. Once Oswald decided to do the deed, there wasn't much they could do.
Oh brother another " Coincidence Theorist "
I love it
Mr.Hill wrote this book to protect the love of his life , Jackie, wow...
us ole country boys from GA just don't quit
Clint Hill says he didn't write the book in this interview (listen @ 16:14) he goes to say she wrote the book Ms. .Lisa McCoven and gave it the title of the book, Mrs. Kennedy and Me. Which I find curious that he's given her full credit for writing the book.
her name was McCubbin, and she did literally write the book. But it was his memories and stories, she just put it all together.
Lisa Cubbin was the ghostwriter! But ofcourse it was all based on Clint Hills memories
Mr Palamara~ I heard your radio shows in NY and England. I have your book ordered. Thanks for all you do.
firework and gunshot sound totally different, how can a fbi member does not realize it! moreover, he said the sound was from the rear but why so sure while he did not actually see it. really doubt whether jfk really did request not use the shield.
I have the Barbara Gamarekian history that outed Fiddle, Faddle and Mimi (recorded 1864). She made it seem that the three young women flaunted their access to JFK. Dallek was simply the first to read it and then investigate. Even knowing what was happening, Gamarekian still very much loved JFK. Reading other sources, seems they all did. Joan Braden's (close K's friend) autobigraphy makes one think this was common amongst the Washington political set for both men and women of both parties.
The phone call between Jackie and LBJ is creepy; it’s loaded with so much beneath all the ‘pleasantries’. Both trying hard to be nice.
Yea it is just that Vince wouldn't want to admit that maybe his hero (while setting himself up for a death wish was a stretch) might have potentially caused himself some harm by driving in an open stretch limo.
Brian Lamb ! This is fascinating.
Is it me.... Or are there any one else that feels like Mr. Hill was a lot closer to Jackie than he's saying..... She was a really good looking woman..... Real men don't kiss and tell!!!!!
