52 years ago today

JFK

I traveled to Washington, D.C. with four friends from Indiana State College for the funeral of President John F. Kennedy 52 years ago this week.

jfk01 (1)I shot this photo of the caisson bearing the late President’s body down Pennsylvania Avenue using a cheap little point-and-shoot camera that I got free for empty Viceroy cigarette packs.

Not bad for a plastic lens and no light metering or shutter/aperture control.

Here I am with ATΩ Fraternity brother Reed McCormick, who died a few years ago in Arizona, and TKE Fraternity friend Steve Dolbow in front of the Capitol Building after the funeral parade.
