John Kennedy's Assassination 
.......at Arlington I climbed a tree to get a better view, and was quickly surrounded by the Secret Service who told me to come down and asked what I was doing up there....... :)

LA GRANGE, LENOIR COUNTY -An Eastern Carolina man had the opportunity to serve President John F. Kennedy in a way not all Americans could back in the 1960s.

Daniel Boyette of La Grange served as an honor guard at Arlington National Cemetery for three years, starting in 1963.

La Grange joined the honor guard shortly after President Kennedy's death. Two weeks after the president was buried, Boyette guarded his grave site.

"It felt like I was going to burst," Boyette said. "It was a proud moment."

  1. What is the Secret Service concerned about; their job was to protect Kennedy
    while he was alive and failed, in fact ordering one agent to abandon his post;
    the dirty deed was accomplished with gov involvement and its henchmen.
