[MrDerek1243]

JFK was born in 1917 not 1907

@MrDerek1243 Yes, thank you, you are correct. I have an annotation that appears as a comic strip bubble that corrects this. Perhaps you can't see this on the platform you were watching this on.

What is the music called that begins at the 2:15 mark?

@NickB1121

Chopin's "Funeral March".

I was 6 and home sick on November 22, 1963. I remember it all and this video brought it all back. That was the only time I ever saw my father cry.

I was 5 and sick at home from kindergarten. I remember crying when I watched this and my Dad asked me why.

Thank you for sharing this angle from history with us. It gives us a glimpse into the past that we may never have known.

I love the serious solemnity of this funeral procession.

I wish people would stand silently at major funerals like they used to instead of wrecking moments with tacky applause that frequently gets thrown these days.

[HattieLovesCattie]

They had the birthday wrong,its 1917,not 1907.

To the poster: How young were you and how much do you remember?

[dafrankma]

I was just a week shy of 3 and I don't remember anything.

[mikefan09]

@dafrankma so maybe john john remembered very little too, perhaps a sort of mercy

[scatman44]

I thought his year of birth was 1917. It's all good, though. Great vid!

[dafrankma]

@rockrebelgrl Thank you. My father has corrected it, but I haven't posted the new video yet.
