Es verdad? http://www.granma.cu/idiomas/ingles/international-i/18oct-KENNEDY.html This is so weird. The AF 1 transmissions definitely show LeMay’s adjutant trying to contact LeMay, and from what I can tell, and I really tried to get this, these were overheard by AF 1 and not present in the initial and quite edited version of AF 1 tapes but revealed in the newer longer,still incomplete, version. No way was LeMay on AF 1. But I’m convinced that as a result of his adjutant’s efforts he did make it to the autopsy, specifically to the right hospital, which I think was part of the adjutant’s message. As for Lemnitzer and NATO, I’m glad that Jim pointed out Lemnitzer’s access to the Gladio network, something that has never really been looked at. Newman, plodding along in great detail and depth, seems to be coming to the realization that the military were behind the assassination. This in no way removes the CIA from the equation. They are intimately connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen this Atlantic article, or the Granma article, so thank you both for posting them. The Atlantic article takes the viewpoint, which I agree with, that JFK’s most important task was to restore the president’s role as the civilian controller of the military. I guess he failed. His cooperation and encouragement in the making of Seven Days in May and filming it partly in the WH has always seemed significant to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Kelly needs to comment on la propaganda of the Granma article. Jim DiEugenio should fact-check the Atlantic article on JFK and the military, since it's by the dreaded Robert Dallek.

The Stoughton photos-- which were originally published in TIME circa 1967)-- do not show him there; nor is he on the official manifest; nor does any witness place him there.

The cotton field was probably a place where one could grasp some straws, until the cultural appropriation police came around... They'll probably yank this and "Shortnin' Bread" from the old Beach Boys records. Edited February 26, 2021 by David Andrews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who makes up this kind of stuff? Since the Dallas casket aboard Air Force One did not contain JFK's body, my theory is that LeMay was inside the casket.
