Hi Katie,

Thanks so much for the kind note. JFK certainly holds a special place in my heart along with Selassie, so it was really something to see this photo. My sister and I were honored to meet JFK when we were children living at Offutt AFB (Strategic Air Command)in Nebraska. My sister actually received a kiss on the forehead which, of course, my family always remembers. We have a nice photo of my father debriefing Kennedy in the underground three stories below where some of the most critical military communication systems were housed. I keep that photo framed in my work office as a reminder of both JFK and my dad (who passed away in 1979). He was retired as Commander of Defense Communications for DCA. Growing up in a military family had some advantages. Course by the time I went to college I had gone the other way....an anti war activist.
