When the shots were fired in Dallas 50 years ago, only one Secret Service agent managed to reach President John F. Kennedy. Clint Hill is 81 now, but his memories are sharp. He was assigned to protect Mrs. Kennedy. Hill was standing closest to the first lady on the side of the car following the presidential limousine. SCOTT PELLEY: As you're beginning the motorcade through downtown Dallas, what is the crowd like and what are your concerns, if any? CLINT HILL: Well, the crowd had really grown. It was very large. They couldn't be contained on a sidewalk. They were 15 to 20 deep on each side of the street. SCOTT PELLEY: What are you watching as the cars go through those crowds? |
