JFK historian & enthusiast Don Miller spends much of his time at the sight of the assassination educating visitors on what happened, along with selling software with 'exclusive videos' and JFK information. He has personally marked X's on the road in the exact spot Kennedy was gunned down. According to him, the city of Dallas would come by daily and wipe off the X's, until the site was eventually declared a historic landmark.
In the video above: After the deadly shot to Kennedy's head, you can see his wife Jacqueline immediately reach back to the truck of the vehicle. According to Kennedy historian Don Miller, Jackie reported she was grabbing a piece of John's head which was blown off from the shot. (youtube link).
Photos from the location of the Kennedy Assassination, Dallas, Texas. August 30, 2009. I was born well after November 22, 1963, the date US President John F. Kennedy was killed by unknown assassin(s), yet this moment is still one of the most memorable to me. The few images which were taken from the scene of the incident will be forever etched into my mind and the scene of the murder was very eerie. The vicious video (above) of Kennedy being shot once in the back/neck followed by a brutal blow to the head is hard to watch. There are countless theories, movies & accounts of what happened, yet to this day there is no clear, agreed upon conclusion of what exactly happened or who was responsible for the murder of Kennedy, which created perhaps the greatest murder mystery of all time.
