I look forward to learning more about these images, including the one showing two Secret Service agents riding on the siderails of the car immediately behind JFK. I wonder where that one image was taken, as the car wasn't anywhere near as close, and the agents weren't anywhere near to JFK in the Dealey Plaza part of the motorcade route.
