47 years ago. Wow!
Read an interesting opinion piece in the NYT this morning by Jackie's personal Secret Service Agent/Escort. Hard to believe she was just 31 years old when she became First Lady. That's amazing.
A period of promise shuttered by JFK's assassination. Presaged perhaps the most turbulent period of our history since the Civil War. I suspect we're still feeling it's affects in many ways and our current political impasse is a reflection of the conflict of rapid and relentless change that started during that long ago period.
Anyway, I'll think about this today. Hope you will too.
