JFK RFK MLK Assassination Forum

Did you go to Dealet today?

No Not today

how long did it take for Roger to get from his position down to th parking lot?did he ever indicate the actual time?

he never told me but from what i was told it dident take him long

i will have to read again to see what all he did, said he talked to someoneI don't know if that was before the parking lot or after. he also stopped a womanin a car.

he stopped a lady in the parking lot i know that he turned her over to lummy lewis who lost her

I wasn't exactly clear but I though he stopped on the south side of elm and talked to someone then on across the street toward bthe parking lot.

im watching a movie called thirteen days with kevin costner joe

Jerry that is a great movie.I feel sure that it is fairly accurate.Kevin Costner does a superb job as Kenney O'Donnell, Bruce Greenwood as JFK is awesomeGood Movie. I was in Florida the night JFK made his televised speech.There were troop convoys everwhere i had been there a few days and didn't really understand what was going onbut when I heard him on TV I headed north early the next morning.If I hadn't spent $7 for the motel I may have left right then.

Obviously, if Kevin Costner is in the movie, then his role (Kenny O'Donnell) may have been trumped up a bit. However, O'Donnell did go to Harvard with Bobby and also played football there. O'Donnell was a special assistant to JFK, and his office was right outside the oval office. JFK never had a Chief of Staff, and O'Donnell sort of played that role. So the movie may have taken the cinematic liberty to enhance the role O'Donnell played (because of Costner), but the recording of the history that happened during those thirteen days was very accurate.
