I was 6 1/2 years old & in the first grade. We lived on the base in Texas (my dad was military) and when the Presidents plane landed we children were there on a field trip. I remember being in shock when I saw he'd been shot...I remember the black and white tv screen shots so clearly. This was during the time that we children were taught to huddle under our desks when the alarms sounded, with hands over head -- it was a scary time in our history. There were lots of those 'moments in history' in my childhood that I never forgot.
