Those who were alive the day President Kennedy was killed can remember it "as if it were yesterday." Ask what they we doing when the heard the news .. and they will tell you every detail, details that were etched into their mind, never to be forgotten.
I remember that day in 1963 ... November 22nd.
As a broadcaster at a small town radio station, I saw the news as it flashed across the UPI --- United Press International --- wire service.
Now for the first time, you can see what I saw as you view the actual sheets which were ripped from the teletype. I have saved these pages after they were read on the air. These are the actual sheets which were printed with a purple ribbon on yellow teletype paper.
