Mrs. Kennedy And Me  - An Intimate Memoir

A memoir by Clint Hill, the Secret Service agent assigned to Jackie Kennedy, detailing his very close relationship with the First Lady during the four years he was assigned to be her personal agent.
Mrs. Kennedy and Me is the true story of the four years Clint Hill spent as First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy?s Secret Service Agent.
In those four years, Hill was by Mrs. Kennedy?s side for some of the happiest moments as well as the darkest. He was there for the birth of John, Jr. on November 25, 1960, as well as for the birth and sudden death of Patrick Bouvier Kennedy on August 8, 1963. Three and a half months later, the unthinkable happened.
Forty-seven years after the assassination of JFK, the one vivid image that never leaves Clint Hill's mind is that of President Kennedy?s head lying on Mrs. Kennedy's lap in the back seat of the limousine, his eyes fixed, blood and brian matter splattered all over the back of the car, Mrs. Kennedy, and Hill as well. Sprawled on the trunk of the car as it sped away from Dealey Plaza, Hill clung to the sides of the car, his feet wedged in so his body was as high as possible.
Clint Hill jumped on the car too late to save the president, but all he knew after that first shot was that if more shots were coming, the bullets had to hit him instead of the First Lady.
