Q. I served in the military honor guard in Kennedy’s White House. I was on duty when the plane carrying Kennedy’s casket, Mrs. Kennedy, and the Johnsons landed at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland.
A. This veteran, Lee Crawford, had seen photographs of the honor guard who stood by the jet’s door as the casket was unloaded. He is in those photographs. He’d like to get a good quality copy of that image. He asked me to help find a source.
I looked online and found the same images he had seen, but I didn’t find a good source. I did discover that Cecil Stoughton was the Kennedy’s official White House photographer. Many, if not all, of Stoughton’s photographs are in the archives of the Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston.
