President John F Kennedy in Laramie, Wyoming, September 25, 1963

I am the cub scout, second from the left. The plane was flown by the same pilots who went to Dallas, six weeks later. This landing was reputedly the most dangerous- ever- for Air Force One because Laramie was "high and hot" and the main runway was only designed for DC-3's- not four engine aircraft. To prepare for the landing, fencing and telephone lines north of the runway were taken down and the Boomerang newspaper marveled the next day how the skid marks were 3ft from the end of the runway.
