My name is Vince Palamara, Secret Service expert (as noted on The History Channel and in many books), and I base this on numerous interviews and correspondence with former JFK era agents from 1991-2009, as well as many years of research through files, films, photos, and other documentary evidence (my research materials are stored, by request under Deed of Gift from the U.S. Government, in the National Archives, as well as at the JFK Library. My work is duly noted in the U.S. Government's official report given to President Clinton, as well as to a host of other luminaries and the media, in 1998: "The Final Report of the Assassination Records Review Board"). My book is entitled "Survivor's Guilt: The Secret Service and the Failure to Protect the President" (1993/2006)

NOTE: Vince Palamara comments in [CAPS] throughout

"About Gerald Blaine:

Gerald Blaine had the privilege of serving three U.S. presidents as a Special Agent of the Secret Service on the White House detail [VERY NICE]. For the first time in his book, The Kennedy Detail: JFK’s Secret Service Agents Break Their Silence, the true story of the events leading up to and following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, from the perspective of the Secret Service agents who were there is revealed [I DISAGREE-MY OWN BOOK, "SURVIVOR'S GUILT: THE SECRET SERVICE & THE FAILURE TO PROTECT THE PRESIDENT", IS THE FIRST TRUE ACCOUNT---CROSS EXAMINATION, NOT AGENCY-APPROVED FRIENDLY DIRECT EXAMINATION---OF WHAT THESE MEN SAID AND DID WITH REGARD TO 11/22/63].

In The Kennedy Detail, Blaine – one of the thirty-four men in Kennedy’s detail – sets history straight on what really happened that afternoon, as well as in the months leading up to and following the assassination [OH, BROTHER...]. His account includes contributions from most of the Secret Service agents who were on the Kennedy Detail, and draws upon their daily reports, expense accounts, personal notes, and verbal first-hand accounts. A close-knit brotherhood of agents who collectively suppressed the trauma of that day, the sharing of this story has helped heal their wounds of failure and guilt [MANY SPOKE PREVIOUSLY TO (COLLECTIVELY) THE WARREN COMMISSION, WILLIAM MANCHESTER, THE HSCA, VINCE PALAMARA, ETC].

Clint Hill, the agent who jumped on the back of the car after the shooting and pushed Jackie down into the back seat, has not contributed to any books on the assassination, until now [WRONG: CLINT HILL CONTRIBUTED TO WILLIAM MANCHESTER'S MASSIVE BEST-SELLER "THE DEATH OF A PRESIDENT", AS WELL AS TO THE EQUALLY MASSIVE BEST-SELLER "THE WARREN REPORT": HE TESTIFIED UNDER OATH TO ARLEN SPECTER...GUESS THOSE DON'T QUALIFY AS BOOKS IN THE MINDS OF SOME...]. As Hill writes in the Foreword, “I don’t talk to anybody about that day [?!?!?!?!?! HE HAS SPOKEN AT LENGTH FOR 3 DIFFERENT SECRET SERVICE TELEVISED SPECIALS (ON VHS AND/ OR DVD, TO BOOT), CNN'S LARRY KING, AND---MULTIPLE TIMES---TO MIKE WALLACE OF "60 MINUTES"! GOOD GRIEF...]…It is only because of my complete faith and trust that Jerry Blaine would tell our story with dignity and unwavering honesty that I agreed to be involved [AND TO COUNTER THAT ASSHOLE VINCE PALAMARA, WHO HAD THE UNMITIGATED GALL TO SEND A 22-PAGE LETTER TO HILL, SIGNED RECEIPT REQUESTED AND RECEIVED, IN JUNE OF 2005 REGARDING PALAMARA'S RESEARCH...IT PISSED HIM OFF ROYALLY AND, WELL...YOU CAN FIGURE OUT THE REST. A CERTAIN AGENT (UNNAMED---hahaha)IS SO AFRAID OF VINCE PALAMARA AND HIS RESEARCH--AND THE TRUTH!---THAT HE HAS TO HIDE BEHIND AN ATTORNEY AND CLAIM FALSELY THAT JFK BANNED THE AGENTS FROM HIS CAR, WHICH HE NEVER DID. PALAMARA HAS AUDIO OF SAIC GERALD BEHN, ASAIC FLOYD BORING, AND SA SAM KINNEY (THE DRIVER OF THE FOLLOW-UP CAR) CONFIRMING THIS, AS WELL AS CONFIRMING LETTERS FROM ATSAIC ART GODFREY, WIN LAWSON, ETC. PRESIDENT JOHN F KENNEDY IS SAYING FROM THE GRAVE, "FELLAHS, I NEVER ORDERED YOU TO DO ANYTHING." OH, WELL: SOMETHING "GOOD" CAME FROM MY LETTER TO HILL: IT INSPIRED A BOOK...].”

While The Kennedy Detail adds another volume to one of the most prolifically discussed aspects of our country’s history – between the conspiracy theories and countless revisionist histories [OF WHICH I AM NEITHER]– it is the only authoritative account of the events of that day from the men, like Clint Hill, who were there to guard the president’s life [I DISAGREE-MY OWN BOOK, "SURVIVOR'S GUILT: THE SECRET SERVICE & THE FAILURE TO PROTECT THE PRESIDENT", IS THE FIRST TRUE ACCOUNT---CROSS EXAMINATION, NOT AGENCY-APPROVED FRIENDLY DIRECT EXAMINATION---OF WHAT THESE MEN SAID AND DID WITH REGARD TO 11/22/63]. With access to information from this privy vantage point, Blaine is able to disclose a variety of behind-the-scenes stories related to the assassination [VERY COOL-LOOKING FORWARD TO THE BOOK...I ORDERED IT AND HAVE SPREAD THE WORD, NEAR AND FAR (I PERSONALLY KNOW OF 24+ RESEARCHERS WHO ORDERED THE BOOK BECAUSE OF ME: I AM YOUR GREATEST PUBLICIST, FREE OF CHARGE, NO STRINGS...AND ***CONTROVERSY SELLS***. SEE? NO NEED FOR COURT ORDERS AND CERTIFIED LETTERS AND ATTORNEYS; THAT CRAP JUST MAKES ME LAUGH AND INSPIRES ME TO GREATER ACTS OF "REVENGE" haha. ALSO, NO MALICE INTENDED OR INFERED; NO PROFIT INVOLVED; FIRST AMENDMENT PRIVILEGES INVOKED. I HONESTLY THINK GERALD BLAINE IS A GREAT GUY--MY ANIMUS IS DIRECTED TOWARD FLOYD BORING, EMORY ROBERTS, AND BILL GREER. AM I HAPPY THAT A "CERTAIN FORMER AGENT" IS CLAIMING THAT JFK BANNED THE AGENTS FROM HIS CAR? HELL, NO...BUT I UNDERSTAND WHY: TO PROTECT THEIR REPUTATIONS, THE AGENCY, THEIR PENSIONS, CLINT HILL'S FEELINGS, ETC].

As Blaine writes, “Every man on the Kennedy Detail would re-live those six seconds in Dallas a million times over. For the rest of their lives, they would be defined by the assassination of JFK, questioned and blamed for failing to achieve the impossible.” [GERALD BLAINE CAN HOLD HIS HEAD HIGH: HE SHOULD HAVE 0.0 REASONS TO FEEL ANY GUILT...ON THE OTHER HAND, I HOPE FLOYD BORING, EMORY ROBERTS, AND BILL GREER BURN IN HELL FOR KILLING JFK...AND, NO: YOU CAN HAVE OSWALD ACTING ALL ALONE AND NO CONSPIRACY AND I STAND BEHIND THESE STATEMENTS. THAT SAID, CLINT HILL AND PAUL LANDIS *WERE* TWO OF THE NINE AGENTS WHO STAYED OUT LATE DRINKING THE NIGHT BEFORE, AS VERIFIED BY THE WARREN COMMISSION AND THE SECRET SERVICE'S OWN INVESTIGATION...HMMM: MAYBE THERE WAS *ANOTHER* REASON THEY NEEDED THEIR SUNGLASSES...]"

Association of Former Agents of the United States Secret Service (AFAUSSS) Annual Meeting- New York City- August 26-28.

“The Kennedy Detail”

At the annual conference of the 2500 member former Secret Service Agents Association last week in New York City, Lisa McCubbin and I [Gerald Blaine] presented an overview of the book at the business meeting to ensure the agents that the publication was “Worthy of Trust and Confidence.” With six of the surviving members of the Kennedy Secret Service Detail in attendance, it was also an ideal opportunity to acknowledge their participation in the book and thank them for helping to ensure the accuracy of its contents. It was a proud moment when the members of the association gave us [Lisa and Gerald]a standing ovation and tribute of recognition to the Kennedy Detail agents who were there.

Following the presentation Lisa and I [Gerald Blaine] presented a check to the organization for $5,000.00 to AFAUSSS President Ike Hendershot on behalf of the Kennedy Detail.

At the conference opening reception Clint Hill, Lisa McCubbin and I [Gerald Blaine] met with Secret Service Director Sullivan and discussed the book from the perspective of today’s operations. Clint Hill, who lives in the Washington DC area, had previously briefed the Director on the accuracy and purpose of writing the book.

I [Gerald Blaine] am the sole surviving charter member and a past president of the organization. The association was conceived by Floyd Boring and Jerry Behn with the assistance of fifteen charter members. Jerry Behn was the Special Agent in Charge of the Kennedy Detail and Floyd Boring was an Assistant Agent in Charge. The organization's mission is to maintain social and professional relationships, to liaison with the Secret Service and other law enforcement agencies and to support and assist members of the Secret Service Family in times of stress or need, including scholarships.

The closing banquet featured speaker was former president Bill Clinton, who expressed his gratitude for the Secret Service and the professional manner with which they performed their mission."
