Two weeks later ... he was laid to rest in the same cemetery. I was only 10 years old at the time ... but I remember those days vividly and always will.
It is both chilling and heart-wrenching to know now that, merely 2 weeks later, the President would be laid to rest just across the cemetery and with the same presentation of Hail to the Chief and Taps.
And, 11 days later, history will have made a mistake. What should not have happened, sadly did. This man John Fitzgerald Kennedy was a combat veteran and true war hero. I've read his account of the days he spent saving the lives of his crew. A true hero.
I mourn the absence of true blue heroes for this generation. Despite their notriety in sexual activities ( most of it was exaggerated by the media after their deaths) , the Kennedy brothers ...Joe ,Bobby and Jack Kennedy were heroic figures Joe kennedy insisted on carrying out a a last bomb dropping sortie even tho his superiors asked him not to , and was killed in that last mission Jack kennedy was a sickly child and grew up into a sickly adult , yet he joined the army and his exploits are well known Bobby Kennedy lied about being older than he really was just so he could join the armed forces All these three men could have led a cushy life as children of a wealthy man , but they fought for their country , which unfortunately could not protect them Then theres George Bush who has to prove he did not dodge the draft !
@@gamernorcal True, and he was a real World War veteran who volunteered for the navy despite not being in top physical shape and his father having the strings to pull him out. He served to the end of the war and also a good swimmer and able to handle a rowboat when he was in the university. Unlike the egomaniacal LBJ who went on only 1 mission and bragged and exaggerated it. In the primary of 1960 he spoke more harshly than Nixon did about him.
@@gamernorcal I remember the day it happened. I was in 2nd grade at P.S. 24 , Flushing, Queens NYC. A teacher came 5o our classroom and told us that the President has been killed. I was very surprised and I remember thinking whoever did that should be killed in return. The next day Oswald was killed by a man that was known by the Dallas Police Department while being led by a heavyset man in civilian clothes. To this very day the tape recordings made by the police remains classified as Above Top Secret. Those orders came from the Chief of Police in Dallas and the head of the F.B.I. EDGAR HOOVER!
I wonder when US Presidents, especially those who never served in the military, started to salute. We were always taught the salute is a privilege reserved only for those in uniform…
Absolutely stunning that less than two short weeks later the same participants would return, only this time one of them would be the subject of the solemn service.
I was there that day, as a member of the US Coast Guard Honor Guard. I am the one holding the white Coast Guard flag in the Joint Color Guard. I also participated in the entire funeral procession and grave side ceremonies in Arlington Cemetery.
This was a time when No One kneeled during our national anthem This was a time when we were a United country This was a time of mutual respect This was a time when America was the world leader This was the rime of the last great President This was a time when our nation lost its innocence & hope These were the best of times in the USA. What could have been we will never know… the loss of Kennedy was the beginning of the end of the Golden years of our country. The entire world mourned his assassination, even his enemies...
United? Sir, there was immense division, protests, rioting and political assassinations during the 60s. Aside from JFK’s one thousand days in office, it was one of the worst decades in American history
Eddie I would turn 8 yrs. old on Nov 21st. I remember that day very vividly. Oh my what a different world it was back then. Everyone, and I mean everyone, paid their respects to the President of the United States. Our decline as a nation began that fateful day.
I've never seen this footage before...It's hard to believe that just 11 days later John F. Kennedy would be no more , and if this is taking place at Arlington National Cemetery ( not sure ) , Kennedy himself would be at rest there very soon....The uncertainties of life!
He could never have guessed that his own dead body would be Interned in that very same place, Arlington National Cemetary, in less than 14 days after this ceremony took place!
The day before leaving LBJ was leaving the Oval office with JFK and when LBJ walked out.jfk looked at Evelyn Lincoln his personal secretary and said ......he sure is achous to go to Texas..talking about LBJ.

He did not believe he would live to an old age. That's why he wanted to be president before his time was up. Could be because he had so many health issues. But the day he died, he did tell Jackie that if someone wanted to shoot him with a rifle from a building, it could not be stopped, so they shouldn't worry about it.
@@Swlabr61 He came from an era when political leaders understood that they might need to “sacrifice themselves” for their causes and beliefs. Today’s leaders lack that sense of conviction. I can’t see any of the recent presidents, congressional members, or governors laying down their lives for the sake of their people. They instead wish to be lauded and worshipped. But we don’t do kings in America, and may death visit any would-be dictator:
🤔My mother and grandmother were shopping at a department store in Downtown Dallas when he was shot. They were close enough to Dealey Plaza to see the rush of people running down the street screaming when they came out of the store. The rest is history. All of us in Dallas were blamed for years, even the Dallas Cowboys had objects thrown at them by fans for weeks when they played out of town, like it was their fault, but no one cried more than the people of Dallas.🇺🇲

My heart aches watching this video... Only 2 weeks later would he be taken and was reportedly buried here.. You can here a little kid even go "there he is!" in this video; showing true admiration of a genuine hero. God bless JFK
I don't know, but watching old film footage of President Kennedy, he seems 'golden' to me. I don't know how to explain it. it's as if he has this 'aura', this 'glow', surrounding him. (does that make sense)? probably not. I was 4 1/2 years old when he was assassinated, & I have no memory of him whatsoever.
Slaughtered like a Thanksgiving turkey, so close to Thanksgiving. Thank heavens that LBJ was a strong leader who was able to console the country and guide America out of its grief.

Consider: "The Twilight Zone" began its run in the autumn of 1959, a few months before JFK became a candidate for president, and ended in the spring of 1964, six months after he died. That's just trivia, of course, but it's an interesting coincidence

He was my first President I done a book report on in 6th grade, I finished reading I believe it was called 4 Days and I went, so very sad, that was 1982, and I still went, he was so young.
Brings back so many sad memories. If he could see what the country has become. I was in elementary school when I found out the the horribble news. Our world will never be the same. Then Robert, and Marten Luther King, and do not forget Abraham Lincoln. It seems they kill only ones who are brave and want a change. Just thinking about these men leaves me crying. Pearline
I wonder how many of those in uniform, standing behind JFK, knew what was about to go down in less than two weeks? We need JFK now more then ever. Come back Jack. 😔
This was hard to watch knowing he would be dead 11 days later. I lived on the opposite coast, but my Father and Mother (being newly naturalized Americans, me much later) made us watch the nightly news/any important news on the President religiously. They were devastated when he was assassinated.
He was politically described as a DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN. He had both very liberal and conservative policy. He did what was right for the nation not the party. A rare quality seen in few POTUS. Lincoln, Grant, and JFK all were of the same school of thought. " Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." We have not had a POTUS that has had the care, concern and love of country since JFK and I doubt we will again.
Oh to have the gift of time travel..2 weeks later taps being played for the young JFK at his funeral. Not sure if he would've listened to anyone telling him to stay out of Dallas, he had some warnings, but imagine if we could go back and show him the Zapruder film..that wouldve done the trick. God bless you JFK
Two weeks to the day before JFK himself would be laid to rest in the very same cemetery - Arlington. JFK was a bonafide war hero, having served in the Navy during WWII. Despite having a bad back his entire adult life, JFK actually made great efforts to join the Navy, even though his medical condition would normally have resulted in a deferrment. The exact opposite of a recent *EX* president who went to great lengths to AVOID service to his country, giving the rather dubious excuse of having "bone spurs." There are great heroes in American history - and then there are infamous cowards who lie, cheat and steal as they desperately try clinging to power so they can abuse it.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy 35th President of the United States A Profile in Courage JFK was a war hero and a President that in 1000 days set a standard that no president since has come close to upholding. When he made a mistake with Bay of Pigs based on incorrect intel and poor advice from Joint Chiefs, he learned a hard lesson, not to trust intel from advisors with out doing the research on your own. He also admitted to the country his error in policy and did not try to pass the blame or lie to cover it up. The Buck stopped with him. He also knew he had to give and take with Americas enemies. He allowed the Brelin wall to stay knowing retaliation at that point would cause more harm than good for both Berlin and USA. However he stood firm on the Cuban missile crisis and handled the situation with a cool headed firmness, unlike his advisers who wanted to bomb Cuba in response. Had he allowed LeMay to have his way, there would have been nuclear war. He stood up to Khrushchev, not letting him to cross that line in the sand and got the nucelar weapons removed and in such a way that Khrushchev was allowed to "save face", thus insuring a war between the super powers would not happen under either man's watch. He tried to resolve civil rights in America and did not back down to the southern political threats. When any American military personnel was killed he took it seriously and it was personal pain for him, such that he sent letters of condolences written in his own hand to the family. When he saw wrong and injustice he tried to right those wrongs. America was always first with him. Since JFK we have not had a POTUS with the intelligence, grace and love of country that he had. Truly no one has come close after him, and he is a member of the small group of POTUS that had the same values as he. Lincoln, Grant and JFK have truly set the bar for what an POTUS should be. R.I.P. JFK A nation thanks you for your service.
You can watch on RUclips the complete 4-day coverage of Kennedy's Assassination from CBS News. The most gut-wrenching part for me is at the end, when a cannon up next to the Custis-Lee Mansion slowly gives a 21 gun salute.

Those who try to change things for the better are always in grave danger for EVIL does not want change. The President was a hero during WW2 and our American Hero 11 days later. Lord have mercy. RIP JFK.
Anyone notice anything different about JFK at the Tomb? Take a minute. It’s something that would cause apoplexy today among some people (maybe it did then, too, I don’t know) but that I find refreshing. OK? Wait for it ….. He doesn’t salute. I noticed the same thing in a film of Kennedy arriving on the presidential helicopter. The military people salute him, but he doesn’t return the salute. The reason I find it refreshing is that when I see presidents salute, it seems kind of phony to me because they’re civilians (even though JFK served, of course) . Anyway, I found it interesting
What an absolute boss. High Treason abounds while this is going on - as it’s only a matter of days before that day. RIP Sir. Please pray for us left behind. VERITAS ✊

Some of us were lucky enough to see JFK in person. If you missed the chance you rarely got a second one.
Wow...and many actually touched him the day he died ..
Now this was a liberal Democrat president I was proud of…
He was no liberal. At least not by todays standards. Todays libs have no common sense. JFK had a ton of it.
He was my first President I done a book report on in 6th grade, I finished reading I believe it was called 4 Days and I went, so very sad, that was 1982, and I still went, he was so young.
And to think his assassination was already in the works.
Salute! To the Commander In Chief
Brings back so many sad memories. If he could see what the country has become. I was in elementary school when I found out the the horribble news. Our world will never be the same. Then Robert, and Marten Luther King, and do not forget Abraham Lincoln. It seems they kill only ones who are brave and want a change. Just thinking about these men leaves me crying. Pearline
He had only 11 days left to live and so did America...
RIP 🙏President JFK 🙏😢💔 One among the best Presidents America ever had!
I wonder how many of those in uniform, standing behind JFK, knew what was about to go down in less than two weeks?
We need JFK now more then ever.
Come back Jack. 😔
His son Junior is still alive as well as his wife Carolyne Bosset.
@@luislaplume8261 Let me guess, you voted for Trump?
I’m sorry but President Kennedy is gone forever. We have floundered ever since.
how would they know ? Wow are you that paranoid ?
we'll never see something like this again
RIP Sir best president the USA ever had/ ever will have.
This was hard to watch knowing he would be dead 11 days later. I lived on the opposite coast, but my Father and Mother (being newly naturalized Americans, me much later) made us watch the nightly news/any important news on the President religiously. They were devastated when he was assassinated.
Gone to sleep in Glory My Great GrandDad John F Kennedy
Wow, kind of a weird feeling seeing this. Just a short time after this, he was laid to rest in Arlington.
Great President
He would be back in Arlington exactly two weeks later…forever.
11 days before his death...
He was politically described as a DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN. He had both very liberal and conservative policy. He did what was right for the nation not the party. A rare quality seen in few POTUS. Lincoln, Grant, and JFK all were of the same school of thought. " Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." We have not had a POTUS that has had the care, concern and love of
country since JFK and I doubt we will again.
Such a brief ceremony, but very dignified.
The evil from within that killed him has been rotting the core of our country ever since. We have never been the same.
Beyond sad 😞
JFK eternamente ❤️
Oh to have the gift of time travel..2 weeks later taps being played for the young JFK at his funeral. Not sure if he would've listened to anyone telling him to stay out of Dallas, he had some warnings, but imagine if we could go back and show him the Zapruder film..that wouldve done the trick. God bless you JFK
What a respectful ceremony.
You're not respectful.
We're not really free.
Q-uickly becoming my favourite channel..❤🙏
Hard to believe this was 58 years ago. How this country has become so polarized since then. Sad state of affairs.
I bet it never crossed his mind that two weeks later he'd be buried there.
When the USA was a great nation! If we could only reach back in time and stop his trip to Dallas.... BTW, LHO shot nobody!
Little did he know that two weeks later, he would be buried in the same cemetery. 💔
I wondered if John F. Kennedy would have been as fondly remembered if he was not assassinated on November 22, 1963?
Good question
Little did we know back then in less than two weeks or 11 days later this same tune would be played at Kennedy’s funeral.
Two weeks to the day before JFK himself would be laid to rest in the very same cemetery - Arlington. JFK was a bonafide war hero, having served in the Navy during WWII. Despite having a bad back his entire adult life, JFK actually made great efforts to join the Navy, even though his medical condition would normally have resulted in a deferrment. The exact opposite of a recent *EX* president who went to great lengths to AVOID service to his country, giving the rather dubious excuse of having "bone spurs." There are great heroes in American history - and then there are infamous cowards who lie, cheat and steal as they desperately try clinging to power so they can abuse it.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
35th President of the United States
A Profile in Courage
JFK was a war hero and a President that in 1000 days set a standard that no president since has come close to upholding.
When he made a mistake with Bay of Pigs based on incorrect intel and poor advice from Joint Chiefs, he learned a hard lesson, not to trust intel from advisors with out doing the research on your own. He also admitted to the country his error in policy and did not try to pass the blame or lie to cover it up. The Buck stopped with him. He also knew he had to give and take with Americas enemies. He allowed the Brelin wall to stay knowing retaliation at that point would cause more harm than good for both Berlin and USA. However he stood firm on the Cuban missile crisis and handled the situation with a cool headed firmness, unlike his advisers who wanted to bomb Cuba in response. Had he allowed LeMay to have his way, there would have been nuclear war. He stood up to Khrushchev, not letting him to cross that line in the sand and got the nucelar weapons removed and in such a way that Khrushchev was allowed to "save face", thus insuring a war between the super powers would not happen under either man's watch. He tried to resolve civil rights in America and did not back down to the southern political threats. When any American military personnel was killed he took it seriously and it was personal pain for him, such that he sent letters of condolences written in his own hand to the family. When he saw wrong and injustice he tried to right those wrongs. America was always first with him. Since JFK we have not had a POTUS with the intelligence, grace and love of country that he had. Truly no one has come close after him, and he is a member of the small group of POTUS that had the same values as he. Lincoln, Grant and JFK have truly set the bar for what an POTUS should be.
R.I.P. JFK A nation thanks you for your service.
Shutup liar

I was in the 11th grade sitting in the cafeteria for Study Hall when the dean came in to announce Kennedy's assassination.
Jfk sempre foi meu herói desde meus dias de garoto jfk sempre
You can watch on RUclips the complete 4-day coverage of Kennedy's Assassination from CBS News. The most gut-wrenching part for me is at the end, when a cannon up next to the Custis-Lee Mansion slowly gives a 21 gun salute.
My God! He'd be dead in 11 days! How gut wrenching in hindsight!
Em pouco mais de 10 dias, ficaria para sempre aí.....
Poetic
Best comeback EVER - 149
Little did he no he be there 11 days later rip President Kennedy
🙏
This is what a REAL president looks like. Today, we have this "president".....um, I don't want to go any further, I'm too disgusted.
You could also say that about the poser who was the last prez!!
Marine Corps. Commandant and Medal of Honor recipient David M. Shoup standing next to Kennedy.
No he isn't . Stop making up things
You're lying.
@@iamshango3005 Were you born last year! David M. Shoup was the Commandant of the Marine Corp. under President Kennedy. Furthermore click the "Show More" for a list of the people. Make sure you take your meds next time.
Those who try to change things for the better are always in grave danger for EVIL does not want change. The President was a hero during WW2 and our American Hero 11 days later. Lord have mercy. RIP JFK.
Anyone notice anything different about JFK at the Tomb? Take a minute. It’s something that would cause apoplexy today among some people (maybe it did then, too, I don’t know) but that I find refreshing. OK? Wait for it ….. He doesn’t salute. I noticed the same thing in a film of Kennedy arriving on the presidential helicopter. The military people salute him, but he doesn’t return the salute. The reason I find it refreshing is that when I see presidents salute, it seems kind of phony to me because they’re civilians (even though JFK served, of course) . Anyway, I found it interesting
Allen Dulles, LBJ, Connolly all knew he was going to be hit.
Like yesterday!!
I do not know how he did he did with the back injury he had.
Sad... :(
😥
Wow
Jfk sempre foi meu herói desde meusdias de garoto jfk sempre jfk sempre jfk sempre🙌👶👦🇺🇸🇱🇷👤🗣👏
What an absolute boss.
High Treason abounds while this is going on - as it’s only a matter of days before that day. RIP Sir. Please pray for us left behind.
VERITAS ✊
