# ' s 2-3-4 -8 & " Little Rascals " certainly bring back memories as a child at that time in my life !!! #8 I remember walking back to Elementary School after lunch at home & listening too Transistor Radio & hearing the Breaking News that JFK had been shot in Dallas !! I was just at the front of the school at that moment . I walked right into the Teachers Lounge near end of Lunch . Was told that I did not belong in there and did not knock ! I held up my radio, turning it too full volume and announced , The President has just been shot in Dallas and then just stood their as Teachers & Principal listened !! I was in 5th grade at that time , In class , we all just sat at our desks while events were air over the school P.A. System until End of Day bell rang !!

Morning Sir, Wow! Thanks for sharing that story with me. That picture of JFK is part of history. I was too young to remember, but I knew where I was when MLK was assassinated. Thanks for viewing and feedback.
