I was 2nd grader at Pauline South Elementary School near former Forbes Air Force Base, Kansas. Principal called all teachers to meeting over PA system. You could hear crying as they returned to their respective classrooms. School was dismissed early. We were not given any explanation.
Walked home from school and my mother delivered news to me as I came through door. I, too, watched as Jack Ruby shot Lee Harvey Oswald on live TV. I remember this as sad, tragic time in United States.
