Apropos of yesterday's anniversary of the JFK assassination is NPR's unveiling of tapes of ground-to-air communications between Air Force One and authorities in Washington in the aftermath of the death of the President. I haven't listened to it all yet, but much of it is compelling -- especially the necessarily cold detachment these people had to display on one of the most trying days in American history. The discussion of the means of transportation for JFK's body is particularly chilling and heartbreaking.
