This is a movie quote but it's not without substance.<br /><br />David Ferrie : Oh man, why don't you fuckin' stop it? Shit, this is too fuckin' big for you, you know that? Who did the president, who killed Kennedy, fuck man! It's a mystery! It's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma! The fuckin' shooters don't even know!<br /><br />My question is how many people (not just passengers) were in the car that day?<br /><br /><br />If interested, I insist you answered my question before watching the following clip.<br /><br />https://youtu.be/tqTL6aLaB6Q<br />Charles Edward Frithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09231685619963486690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245944348321146643.post-51666470058591815462021-10-18T20:33:18.193-07:002021-10-18T20:33:18.193-07:00Well you all have got a problem.

In it Conant documents that the BSC's "Stephenson allowed [Ian] Fleming privileges far above his rank. He invited him to his penthouse, which for all practical purposes was a safe house, where he held court in an elegant two-storied drawing room with an enormous fireplace and regularly gathered the grand and near-grand of the British High Command. Among those who could be found there, at various times, were General Lord Ismay, the prime minister's defense chief of staff; Major General Sir Colin Gubbins, chief of the Special Operations Executive; Lord Beaverbrook; and many others. It was there that he introduced Fleming to the handful of figures in his inner circle, including Ernest Cuneo, Donovan's personal liaison between British intelligence, the White House, and the FBI." This close relationship between British and American spies which began at Camp X during WWII continued unabated 20 years later when the upstart JFK promised to bust it up.Linda Minorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12471408043285695958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245944348321146643.post-68551258257927862602012-06-06T23:26:25.661-07:002012-06-06T23:26:25.661-07:00There were 2 SAC bases in Northern Michigan's ...There were 2 SAC bases in Northern Michigan's Upper Pennisula in 1963.<br /><br />Both now closed.<br /><br />K.I.

Sawyer with<br />a friend whose father was an AF Officer, and seeing rows of<br />B-52s lined up and ready for take off.<br /><br />[IMG]http://i959.photobucket.com/albums/ae75/garcra/k-I_sawyer_afb_410bw_sign.jpg[/IMG]<br /><br />[IMG]http://i959.photobucket.com/albums/ae75/garcra/k_i_sawyer_afb_flightline.jpg[/IMG]garcrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11687079775312226103noreply@blogger.com
