Five months before JFK was assassinated he visited Ireland, there was a ceremony to honour the fallen in Arbour Hill. JFK was so impressed with the Honour Guard that he stopped at the officer in charge of the Cadets and said "congratulations Lieutenant, that's the finest Honour Guard I have ever seen, please give my thanks and congratulations to the members of the guard". He said this to Jackie & they were there at her request as well as honouring his Irish heritage.
I’m British but this footage fills me with reverential awe & pride. This is perhaps the finest rendition of the US national anthem. Then the USAF bagpipes playing the Mist Covered Mountains is so moving. The flypast culminating in Air Force One is so poignant & filled with raw emotion.
@@aliceforsyth9476 I don't count blond wig wearing, draft dodging, New York City grifter, multiple business failure, capital riot instigating, waste of human skin Trump as a President.

I was 10 years old. Vivid as if it was yesterday. Will never ever forget or anyone alive during this time! 😢😢😢 God Rest President John Fitzgerald Kennedy soul++
"Our Nation is bereaved. The whole world is poorer because of his loss.

Went to President Kennedy’s grave nine years after his assignation. Now I’ve seen updates on the site and how different it all is today. What a strong woman Jackie was, GOD BLESS her, to have her husband murdered while sitting beside her and his body parts spilled all over her, then to have the strength to actually hold herself together durning this long process is beyond belief.❤️😘✝️
The piece the bagpipe band plays is called "Mist Covered Mountains". It to was also played by bagpipes at Queen Elizabeth's funeral back in September of last year.
Saddest day in OUR HISTORY! Was in Grade 10, school out, and family invited by our neighbors, to watch this with them! Only 15 yrs of age, and, now, 72!, was like yesterday!!
I was 16 years old when all this took place. I still remember the events vividly as though it happened yesterday..... I was a junior in high school and never forget that Friday morning just an hour before noon California time........
+Fake Account coming on 70 but I can recall all the events like it was yesterday........ I was only 20 and a soldier in Viet-Nam when we gathered around a transistor radio to listen to the news of the assassination of Dr King in 1968. The brothers were shaken badly by this. Many refused to fight....... This was a rich man's war with the poor men fighting it. Pres Johnson and J Edgar Hoover FBI director connived to draft more young black men like myself then. Although we made up 12% of the population but a higher proportion of us were being drafted per ratio to get us off the streets during the turbulent 60s amidst all the riots across the nation. Ha! we were there fighting for the Vietnamese to have a democracy when we were being denied civil rights in America...... What a travesty.
Ma 1nguy so you were born in 47 huh ? you must be 72 now I was too young to remember any of this though I was around then I vaguely remember when Bobby Kennedy was shot in 1968 both BROTHERS got cheated Jack and Bobby
yes Jackie specifically requested that the Irish Guards be there by the graveside because JFK was so impressed with their drill when he visited ireland a few months before his death
Alan Mac you're just a nasty piece of work,they are to this day the only foreign army allowed to perform at Arlington national cemetery. Don't get uptight just because Britain ain't great anymore 😁
Alan Mac and by the way you xenophobic dirtbag who gave that British regiment it's title Irish guards? how's brexit going BTW 😁😁😁 not so United Kingdom now are you or not for much longer
Willie melton jr Agree, I was 8year old living in Lancaster England and I was in tears. He was a great man and the world is lesser for him not being in it.
Can we imagine, if he lived and also second term, our country would be so rich in money, love, respect.. but I’m sure it would take a toll on his body.
@@frederickrapp5396 No worries man!I was only 4 months old in Nov 63. I would have liked to have witnessed that decade as an adult- a whole lot of things happened.But it all turned sour so maybe all for the best not to remember that era from personal experience.
John Kennedy loved his country but he loved Ireland. JFK was guarded in death as a fallen leader by the Iris Guards. What made us think we would have him long enough to see gray hair on his head. RIP
why? I was not born yet.he seemed great..doing good things..will we ever no the truth of who did it? I want to know and if there a live they should be punished! one way or the other..was it the Texans?? no names but we know who! my younger daughter asked me why I don't have the answers. other than JFK was cleaning up Washington DC!!! and some people liked it the way it was. just if it didn't happen he would have changed a lot more than he did!! I think he was a great man.a fellow Massachusetts man!!
There was an RTE documentary on YT about the cadets who formed that honour guard, called "Kennedy's Cadets." For those cadets to have been selected, flown to the US and to polish that drill , between the news of the assassination and the funeral was a near-miracle of timing and a testament to how good those lads were at the task and to the discipline instilled by their trainers.
It has stayed in my images permanently president John Kennedy's funeral which our family at home in Finland followed serious through the television. I was then six year-old.
PTSD wasn’t discussed back then but I can only imagine how Jackie felt hearing gun shots just 3 days later. She fulfilled her duty to the country. Such a strong woman.
I was 8 years old when this happened. I remember that even though regular programming was replaced by news of the assassination for the entire weekend we didn’t care. We knew it was important and needed to be done. I don’t think I fully understood until years later though. Also, at the end of the funeral my entire family was in tears. The first time I saw my father cry.
I was six, old enough to understand it very basically but still living in a child's world. It was a strange, jolting intrusion on childhood, to say the least. When you're a kid, you leave the grown-up world to the grown-ups and trust that both worlds, theirs and yours, will be safe. This event pulled us kids away from that presumption, at least for those few days.
60 Years Ago Goodbye and Farewell John Fitzgerald Kennedy Born May 29, 1917 Brookline, MA Died November 22, 1963 Dallas, TX Aged 46 NEVER FORGET 11/22/1963
Those young cadets did an impeccable performance and the extended right arm out then swooping front, repeated by then the left was beautiful! it gave the impression of a warrior’s spirit flying free! ❤
I believe that the Pipe Band was not the USAF’s, but the British Army’s Pipes and Drums of the Royal Highland Regiment, The Black Watch, which performed at the White House for JFK 12 days earlier. Jackie knew He was impressed by them and requested that they March in the Funeral Ceremony.🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸

At 25:12, you are glad for Mrs. Kennedy that the bunched up carpet did not cause her to fall. Even in 1963, had she stumbled to the ground, press photographers would have snapped away at such a terrible moment for her to make the newspapers money. :-(
I was a little girl of 4 but I still remember our TV set being on and seeing the funeral of the President. I don't just see him as a head of state, but as a young man with a family. How selfish and arrogant people are to feel that they're justified, by differing ideologies, to take another human life so casually.
JFK was a one in a life time, America had the opportunity twice and lost two kennedy brothers. Jonn and Robert kennedy. Now look what we have in the white house
Justice Knight It was all because the "money" men who really run the USA wanted rid of him because he was coming after them. A great loss to the world.
@@jenniferholden9397 he needed to follow societal norms the rich stay rich and the poor stay rich and thats that inequality or not i dont give a fuck thats how the game is played you dont fuck with unfuckable people or they will fuck with you as well they are shadows faceless you cant see them
Stopping Neil Armstrong, it was a short step for the presidency of U.S.A; But their legacy of justice, of fighting for human rights, of racial integration, will be an eternal example and inspiration to continue defending these principles.
The USA is the most powerful country on earth, with the largest economy, military and more Nobel Prizes than any other country. Americans are extremely talented and intelligent people. Surely there is some American out there that can clean this footage up to high definetion 2K Quality and sound?
They didn't. The flag was given to Jackie. She was then handed the torch, so she could light the eternal flame. She has the flag under her left arm while she lights the flame with the torch that's in her right hand.
paper: I don't know how old you are but I am on the older end of Caroline's kids age (almost) at 33--thinking about your comment thinking about the younger of her kids' age bracket (20-24 I believe her son is years old) being willing to be a player in the "shoot em up JFK killer video game" Seriously it is real and the only point is to see if you can recreate the shooting with blood guts and GORE!!
You mean Cardinal Cushing? The Archbishop of Boston from 1944 to 1970? HE WAS TRYING BE SOLEMN!!! A family friend, to the Kennedys, and beloved in Boston, an inspired Christian.
@@markcollins2666I was thinking the same thing. Yes, the Cardinal sounds monotone, but as you say, it does seem to provide a proper solemnity, and a jolting finality.
oh and if you recreate it in a "just such manner" by doing it over and over again you get to prove that he was in fact killed by 2 bullets vs. 4" but you do that by "killing him over and over again" and such and such and therefore you get to kill him a ton and push reset when you want to "try again" with ZERO respect to life or death or this day!! AND I AM A FULL 20 years (more than) too young to "get it" (my parents were in high school after the fact)

The drumbeat of his funeral procession is engrained in my head. That was 60 years ago. I can still hear it…
I was only six when this all happened but for a long time I remembered the sound of the funeral drums ... actually never forgot it.
Incredibly moving and majestic, especially when you consider that it was put together in less than 48 hours. I have never seen anything like it.
My heart still grieves for the loss of this "Great President"...
He remains one of the best President this country has ever had !
One of the best indeed. Alongside president Donald J Trump

yes Jackie specifically requested that the Irish Guards be there by the graveside because JFK was so impressed with their drill when he visited ireland a few months before his death
This is simply untrue. The Irish Guards are a British regiment and would have nothing to do with Fenian-loving scum like the Kennedies.

First time a foreign army did a guard of honour for a US President, the Irish defence forces.
Is that Clint Hill standing at the back of the casket at the beginning? He who was the only SS agent who made an attempt to cover the limo and Jackie?

It was the National Geographic Volume 125, Vol. 3, March 1964.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
