Such a great honour to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery.

I called the superintendent of Arlington Cemetery. And he and I walked over those grounds. They're hauntingly beautiful grounds, white crosses all in a row. And finally I thought I'd found the exact spot, the most beautiful spot in the cemetery. I called Jackie at the White House and asked her to come out there, and she immediately accepted. And that's where the President is buried today. A park service ranger came up to me and said that he had escorted President Kennedy on a tour of those grounds a few weeks before. And Kennedy said, "That was the most beautiful spot in Washington." That's where he's buried. - Robert S McNamara

I was only 9 years old and in the 4th Grade when President Kennedy was assassinated. I watched it all on TV and will have it burned into my memory for the rest of my life. So very sad.

As a 9 year old I watched the funeral for the 4 days it ran live on all channels to lay this great man to rest..I didn't expect the tears right now though but I really should have because this is John Fitzgerald Kennedy we're talking about here .. thank you so much Nick for filming this very beautiful tribute to our fallen president and may God bless you

I REMEMBER so well! Still cry whenever I am reminded of those horrendous times.

My family was living in London and we were among the nearly million people who turned out to see President and Mrs Kennedy as their motorcade drove through central London in June 1961. I vividly remember the excitement and joy of the crowds as they passed by. I remember my parents saying they were never prouder than on that day to be American. Two years later, we were back living in the US in Arlington, VA and were on the Arlington Bridge on the day of the President's funeral. This time there were no excited waving crowds but silence and quiet sobbing as the caisson passed by. Forever burned in my mind is the sound of drums and the clopping of the horses hooves on the bridge. A terrible loss for the nation and the world.

I was only 8 yrs old when this happened & still remember..it was very moving funeral😢 I will never forget🇺🇸

I've been to the gravesite many times...but I still am overwhelmed each time Thank You for this Post 🇺🇸☮️

Very nicely done . Terrible time in our history . I wish this day never happened 😢

The Kennedy family seemed cursed with his brother getting shot later on, and his son dying in a plane crash. Haven't seen a lot of the fortage before so thanks for that. It was a Sad but great Video

Thank you for going there and showing President Kennedy s graveside. I was alive and remember the whole matter vividly!!! How sad thst 60 years have gone by anybody hardly I Acknowledges the 35th President and the Anniversay of his death November 22.1963. Eternal Rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon John and Jacqueline Kennedy and may they souls rest in Peace✝️🙏

This Was So Well Done. You Made A 65 Year Old Man Cry. I have been there,but will not Be able to return again. Thank You So Much!!🌈

I remember going there on my senior class trip in 1975 and visiting JFK grave. I will never forget it.

So sad, the first family. Jack, Jackie and their two small children who perished as children 😢

I still shed a 😢 when I see this video

Nick, this was a stunningly beautiful tribute to President Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy. I've never seen a better video. I was only 5 years old when President Kennedy was killed but I remember it all so well. It affected me so much when I was watching the President's funeral on TV with my mom and little John John saluted his father's casket as it passed by. To this day I can't get that image out of my head. I felt like I was so much older than him when I really wasn't, and I felt so sad for him when my mom explained to me that our President was assassinated. My parents took us on vacation to Florida during that time, when President Kennedy's motorcade passed by our hotel just days before he got to Dallas where he was killed. My dad told me that story so many times over the years before he died himself. Thank you for doing this and sharing this with us. I hope one day I can get there in person. I know it's on my bucket list.

I believe the ETERNAL FLAME was Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy's idea. She was such an intelligent woman. I was honoured to visit Arlingfton cemetary and it was quite sad.

Very nice video, beautiful background music, lovely tribute to one of history's greatest leader,s ,some day I'd like to travel from ireland to pay my respects to president Kennedy,s grave, I've enormous respect and admiration for the man RIP

Very respectful and touching! Canadians remember 11/22/1963 as well. Thank you Nick 😉

A really beautiful tribute to our President and First Lady.

Goosebumps. Wow. Omg 😮❤😮❤

John F. Kennedy is my favorite of the presidents. Thank you, Nick, for a great presentation of his grave and of Arlington. Another bucket list stop for me one day soon.

Thank you for for this video. I lived in D.C and passed by this place but sadly never had a chance to visit it

That was a beautiful but sad video RIP

42 years ago I had one day in Washington, on our way back to our campsite we stopped to pay our respects to the President and Bobby. Someday I will return to complete the pilgrimage! RIP all.

i've been there many times--I really miss them more each day!

The coffin was moved 30 feet up the hill I’m March of 1967.

Was only there once as a teenager but it has always stuck with me, Jackie and Teddy were still alive then, so were not there yet. Would like to go back again before I am too old to pay tribute to all those who have been added to Arlington since the mid-70's.

thanks a lot for this video. We all loved them and still it feels horrible watching the events back in the days. Remebering little John boy standing at his fathers grave saluting. Painful memories. Always in our hearts.

Interesting vlog. Going there is a mixed feeling of sadness, gratitude and celebrations of those who have gone before us, some sacrifices while other left us without saying a word.

I spent morning till night and didn’t get to see it all. American History in one place. A must tour.

Really interesting video , so much history , great share 👍

Those of us who were alive at that time will never forget it. I've been to the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas, and hope to make it to Arlington someday.

May they R.N.P. AMEN❤

Appreciate the background info. It has been years since we have been there!

I'm Italian , when i go to Washington one day i will visit and pay my tribute to President Kennedy, a great historical figure, he put hope in our hearts all over the world ❤

Wonderful video! Done with class! great info, I like the way you faded back with video from 63, I remember I was 7 yrs. old.

This was so sad but beautifully made. Thank you..

Nick, thank you so much for the background info, the historic tapes of the memorial' events, and the *burial footage. You are so correct about the mixed emotions one feels at Arlington Cemetery. You presented this with dignity and respect. 🇺🇸🙏🏼🇺🇸

We did not have time to visit the Kennedy area. Nice mixing in the old footage

Rest in eternal peace President John Fitzgerald Kennedy you will never be forgotten 😢❤😢

I live in scotland. I wasn't years old when my brother came out of our house and told us. I didn't believe him ,so I went into the house to find my mother and her sister crying and knew then the awful truth. I remember as if yesterday.

Thank you for your video of the gravesite mixed with archival footage. Also, I appreciate that you photographed the gravesites of those who served with honor in the armed forces as you passed by on the walkway. All those buried at Arlington and other military cemeteries deserve respect for their service.

I visited the site as a 10 year old in April 1976 my father was a South African diplomat have read books about the Kennedys they still fascinate me today have alot of respect for Robert Kennedy Jnr 😇🙏

The graves of Robert Kennedy and Ted Kennedy were very close to this location and the two are buried within feet of each other.

I can’t believe it will be 60 years ago this November. I was a 5th grader in Catholic school,when our principal came in crying and told us what happened. We sang at a funeral Mass in our church for him. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I was in my high school years and heard about JFK assasination that was a sad day for us in my country Philippines we admire him so much and I sent a condolence card in the US Embassy in Manila and so glad I recieved a thank you card in behalf of America and the people.. I love Pres.Kennedy and his Family RIP forever❤❤❤😢

Beautifully done, thank you

Such a loss. I still remember the funeral. Nicely done sir 👍

I remember visiting when I was 11 years old but I wasn't able to understand the story behind it fully. I would love to go back again to get a better look and understanding.

My mom always wanted to visit President Kenndy grave so when my husband went to DC to visit the Holocaust museum and than we went to see Kenndy grave 😢🇺🇸

I can vaguely remember Robert Kennedy getting shot on live TV. I remember watching it and crying. I realized what was going on even though i was a young child. ❤️

Hello Nick. My compliments to you on presenting such a respectful and dignified video. The blending of historical footage along with footage of your visit to the gravesite was definitely well done. I was 11 when JFK was assassinated, and I remember it as if it were yesterday. I remember my mother crying as she was trying to make dinner. My dad, a WWII veteran, was extremely angry. I have visited JFK's gravesite only once, back in 2002 (last time I was in DC). Again, my compliments sir.

Great job, Nick, for showing one of the saddest times in our nation's history.. As we who are getting older who were here at that time, we must let the younger generations who weren't here then know just what a very sad time that was.

Saw that in 2015. Extremely moving for me as i studied JFK in GCSE history and yes the planes were extremely noisy from Reagan International Airport

My family and I lived outside of Washington DC during The Kennedy Years (1961 to 1963) when my father was stationed at the Pentagon. We visited President Kennedy's grave shortly after his burial. It was a very sad time in our country's history. The shock and grief of his senseless assassination left a unbearable sadness. Those were fours days in November I will never forget. His grave in November 1963-1964 was a very simple grave. Nothing like it is today. A small mound of turf, dotted with military hats from the various branches around it plus the flickering Eternal Flame that Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy with Robert and Edward Kennedy beside helped her lit. Shortly thereafter a small white picket fence surrounded the gravesite and the two babies (Arabella - stillborn 1956. Patrick - died 2 days later after being born in early August 1963) that President and Mrs. Kennedy lost were buried inside the enclosure with their parents. Don't let it be forgot. That once there was a spot. For one brief shining moment. That was known as Camelot. There will never be another Camelot.

Thanks. As Marulyn& Robert's child, hidden in europe, Nl, you bring my roots to me. 💝🙏🕯

R.I.P. Mr. President 🥀 and Bobby 🥀 Much ♥️ from 🇩🇪

Great job. Very dignified and respectful post. I was 9 the day after the assassination. I'll never forget that day😢

Arlington National Cemetery is beautiful and awesome.

JFK was originally buried in a different gravesite while current gravesite was being constructed and was moved to current site in a believe 1966-67

I was there in 1963 with my elementary school trip to Washington DC. At that time the grave site of course was just Kennedy surrounded by a small white picket fence with the flame very simple because this was shortly after the assassination. We also saw Lindon Johnson he was coming out of some building and came over to your class that was waiting across the street.

Thank you for this beautiful video! What is the name of the song playing? Shazam said Inner Peace Affirmations but that version has a person speaking over this music... How do you get the original with just the instrumental?

ADDED DECEMBER 10TH SUNDAY 2023 SOUTH PACIFIC SEAS ON AN ISLAND much thanks Nick for this footage as we are oceans and distance away these are memories and moments rekindle and unearth and awaken of this tragedy, will be stored on the tablets of our hearts 💕 BEAUTIFUL KENNEDY FAMILIES, gone but not forgotten❤❤ ❤ WARMEST GREETINGS FOR SHARING YOUR CLIPS WITH US SOPH

I love Kennedy he is forever in my heart 😢

The Kennedys were great men.

A very moving video

Good going Nick. God bless.

No school and this was the only thing on television, seemed like weeks. The caisson, the riderless horse, I believe the most somber things I’ve seen in my 72 years.

Thank you❤🙏😭🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

A Beautiful Video. Thank You.

Merci je ne pourrais jamais aller la bas me receuillir Les videos nous rappellent le destin tragique de cette famille Je n'oublie pas l'endroit où reposes ces absents est yres tres serein et beau pour ce dernier voyage merci😢

JFK's middle name is his mother's maiden name. She was Rose Fitzgerald before she married Joseph Kennedy.

😀👍👍 great video thanks 🤝

An excellent video, tying in the actual event with the President’s grave & the eternal flame. Very well done with the videographer’s own thoughts. Thank you for this.

I was also on the national cemetery. Stood before John F. Kennedy grave. So peaceful.

Thank you very much from Spain ❤

Love this video

Very good video. Interesting and with a lot of information and emotion. Great stuff as always!

The first time I was to Arlington, Jackie had just recently passed and there was just a small temporary marker for her. The "Eternal Flame" is visible from the National Mall.

Nice.thank you.

Great video I have family in MD and we plan to visit the Arlington National Cemetery soon

Someday, I Will Visit The Gravesites Of The President, & First Lady.

4 years a go a group of my friends Went to Arlington and the trip made me stop and a preate what I have Arlington is huge we hight the high lights As people we take things for granted That's why I try to make the world a little less Crazy

I’m from the UK and I’d love to visit.

Had the privilege of walking those grounds; have to comment that its hard for me to be there without being emotional....All the History! The JFK memorial is a place all of its own! For 60 years, the assassination is still unsolved....😢

My late husband who is buried at the Arlington national cemetery 🪦⚰️ in areas of other army 🪖 military 🎖️🪖 plots in the beautiful cemetery 🪦 and it's hard to come here. But I tried to stop by if I'm in Washington DC areas. Been her 4 times.

You missed the TWO CHILDREN. The first is Patrick Kennedy, who died in infancy a few months prior to the assassination. The second child is Arabella Kennedy, whose grave marker simply reads "Daughter" as she was stillborn and did not receive a birth certificate or an official name.

I was in 7th std at that time our schoolwas closed i felt very much for this young president

Because the President would not be buried in Massachusetts the stones you see are from Cape Cod

I was there several times in the past and most recently two weeks ago. It is always moving to be at the spot where President Kennedy and the First Lady are laid to rest among the hundreds of thousands of other heroes who gave all for their country.

Miss him every day

😮😮😮😮thanku

Te debemos lavida tu Sensates y sabiduria Evito laterceraGuerra Mundial,gracias kenidy

Went here in 74. I was 14

Sad. Sad day in our history😢❤. Only Caroline is left

At the General Robert E. Lee home ARLINGTON, with its grounds that Became were taken to become Arlington National Cemetery, wanna tear it down and up too?

Why did you not mention the two children also lost that are interred with Jackie & John?

Go and see marilyns, grave
