remember it well, we were watching TV, which at that time was all news and the assination was on all day. TV was showing Oswald being moved to a more secure area and Jack Ruby snuck in and shot him, all on live TV. We were bringing in Canadian TV at the time, when we switched over to them, It taking up their airtime too. Quite a time for a soon to be 12 year old.
