Description

Clint Hill is best known for his role in the presidential motorcade during the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. Mr. Hill was a Secret Service agent at the time, in charge of protecting First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. During the assassination on Elm Street in Dallas, while the shots were still ringing out, Agent Hill ran from the follow-up car, leapt onto the presidential limousine and shielded Mrs. Kennedy and President Kennedy with his body while the car sped toward Parkland Memorial Hospital. Mr. Hill has done many interviews about those six seconds in Dallas. You can find those on YouTube. Instead of duplicating that interview, I wanted to find out more about the man behind the iconic black and white images. Mr. Hill was gracious with his time and with his stories. I hope you enjoy this episode. If you do, please share it with someone else who might enjoy it as well. Thank you,Warren
