Vincent Palamara was born in Pittsburgh and graduated from Duquesne University with a degree in Sociology.

Although not even born when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, Vince brings fresh eyes to an old case. In fact, Vince would go on to study the largely overlooked actions - and inactions - of the United States Secret Service in unprecedented detail, as well as achieving a world's record in the process, having interviewed and corresponded with over seventy former agents (the House Select Committee on Assassinations had the old record of 46 with a 6 million dollar budget and supboena power from Congress), not to mention many surviving family members, White House aides, and even quite a few Parkland and Bethesda medical witnesses for a corresponding project. The result was Survivor's Guilt; The Secret Service & The Failure To Protect The President, a very successful self-published book that sold thousands of copies in the 1990's before becoming a free online e-book in 2006.

In addition, the aforementioned corresponding project on the John F. Kennedy assassination medical evidence, JFK: The Medical Evidence Reference, Vince's second book, although almost an afterthought to Vince's main area of research, still sold hundreds of copies and was favorably mentioned in books by William Law, R. Andrew Kiel, James Fetzer, and even Vince Bugliosi. Like his first book, Vince's medical evidence tome became a free online e-book in 2006.

All told, Vince has been favorably mentioned in over 50 JFK and Secret Service related books to date (including two whole chapters in Murder in Dealey Plaza, The Secret Service: The Hidden History Of An Enigmatic Agency by Philip Melanson, and the Final Report of the Assassination Records Review Board, among many others), often at length, in the bibliographies, and in the Secret Service - and even medical evidence - areas of these works.

Vince has appeared on the History Channel, local cable access television, YouTube, radio, newspapers, print journals, at national conferences, and all over the internet. Also, Vince's original research materials, or copies of said materials, are stored in the National Archives (by request under Deed Of Gift by the ARRB), the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, Harvard University, the Assassination Archives and Research Center, and the Dallas Public Library.

Vince Palamara has become known (as he was dubbed by the History Channel in 2003) "the Secret Service expert." As former JFK Secret Service agent Joe Paolella proclaimed: "You seem to know a lot about the Secret Service, maybe even more than I do," while fellow JFK Secret Service agent Chuck Zboril stated: "You might be helpful to the official Secret Service historian who works out of Washington!"

  • President Kennedy was a very nice man, was NOT difficult to protect, and NEVER ordered the agents off the rear of his limousine (nor did his staff). The buck stops with the Secret Service. Don't believe any books by former agents trying to say otherwise!

  • His son Richard told me, when I asked him what his father thought of JFK, 'Well, we're Methodists...and JFK was Catholic" (!). Bill Greer was born and raised in County Tyrone, Ireland and worked on the estate of Henry Cabot Lodge before driving JFK

  • Why is he answering handwritten questions not live questions over the phone like other interviews posted here? Is he a lawyer? Or is he afraid of being asked "conspiracy" questions about his father being involved?

  • I interviewed him twice over the phone, but he also wanted to do it this way on another occasion, as well :O)

  • Well that was interesting, and saved me alot of research.

  • thanks :)

  • Greer (ONI) admits breaking 2 protocols, he slowed and turned at sound of bangs. Say's he feels guilty for contributing to JFK's head shot.....Geee whiz. Greer was officially #1 suspect before Oswald patsy was tackled.

  • "No survivors guilt". Charming.

    Just the kind of guy you need driving the President.

    Too old, lousy reaction skills in turning around and slowing down instead of gunning the engine and racing away to avoid any possible following shows.

    The Keystone Cops drove better than this fool.

    One further question to late to ask:

    Was there a bullet hole through the limosine windshield?

  • @hal2526 this interview is just as suspicious as the assasination. What is with the pictures being shuffled,and the reverberation of the microphones? This is a extension of the CIA cover up. This is typical CIA corruption. Only a fool would fall for this. I am not the one. Scrap it.

  • @VincePalamara what is this sh*t. His farther lied to him. The rotten son of a b*tch was a cold blooded murderer. It is only natural that a son defend his farther. His son has know idea what happend.

  • Greer probably had an ear piece in and was being ordered to slow down during the shooting.

    What we do know for sure is that he SLOWED down until the head shot.

    That's a fact

  • the SS led the limo into a sniper's nest, vulnerable to shots from the ft, rear and side. "Was the driver told to follow a certain route" (ie, the sharp left turn that would slow the limo down ) on 11-22?Was he ever given a map? Who supplies him the map? Another ss official? Was he concerned no man was on the rear of the limo? Was he concerned no motorcycle cops were to the immediate ft of the limo? Comes down to this: It is impossible to defend JFK even now in death, or that day either.

  • Greer was part of the plot. He calmly turned towards JFK, almost stopped the car, then calmly turned fwd again after JFK's head explodes. Greer was not surprised at seeing this because he knew it was supposed to happen.
