Some notes on Gary Byrne's excellent SECRETS OF THE SECRET SERVICE book (2018)

Some notes on Gary Byrne's excellent SECRETS OF THE SECRET SERVICE book (2018)



Page 61: Rightly calls Director Merletti’s referencing of the Kennedy assassination “historically inaccurate” re: the president pushing away the agents;
Page 63: “Agent Hill suffered from “survivor’s guilt.” (the title of my first book!);
Pages 79-114: chapter dealing with Washington thru attempt on V.P. Nixon;
Pages 115-146: Kennedy assassination chapter (covers Pavlick and thru Reagan attempt, as well);
Page 117: “the Secret Service did everything wrong; the assassin(s) did everything right.” I love the plural!
Page 120:  nice reference about Abraham Bolden;
Page 120: good take on the drinking incident and exhaustion;
Pages 120-121: referencing my book (page 286): Thomas Shipman;
Page 129: “Numerous details bewildered the public: the lack of motorcycle agents (sic) and agents on the rear bumper of the president’s car…”;
Page 130 (and elsewhere): “many of the changes [recommendations of the Warren Commission] were never implemented.”;
Pages 245-246: interesting info on Sara Jane Moore;
Page 251: Re: October 2017 JFK assassination file releases- “…the more transparent the story of the Kennedy assassination becomes, along with the details of the Secret Service’s involvement, the better.”

(OFF TOPIC) THE VERY BEST VIDEO OF THE IMMACULATE RECEPTION JUST UPLOADED!

(OFF TOPIC) THE VERY BEST VIDEO OF THE IMMACULATE RECEPTION JUST UPLOADED!

JUST UPLOADED 12/12/2017, less than a month ago! BY FAR, the highest quality video I have ever seen. Great news- the play WAS legal- the ball hit Tatum; very obvious in the one slow motion replay (this is NOT the 1998 NBC video that has made the rounds for years- this is even better quality!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHIXFKrrUhA
