Air Force One Radio Transmission Transcript – Update

Recently discovered and released audio tapes from secure Air Force One radio transmissions on November 22, 1963 following the assassination of President Kennedy in Dallas at 12:30 CST add more details to the previous incomplete version made available at the Lyndon B. Johnson Library. Repeated requests for release of the original tapes by researchers have never been satisfied.

Researcher William Kelly has transcribed both versions of the audio tapes into one document available at his blog site, JFK Counter Coup. For the full text visit:
