According to Lady Bird Johnson, who was also present:

"Her hair [was] falling in her face but [she was] very composed ... I looked at her. Mrs. Kennedy's dress was stained with blood. One leg was almost entirely covered with it and her right glove was caked, it was caked with blood – her husband's blood. Somehow that was one of the most poignant sights – that immaculate woman, exquisitely dressed, and caked in blood."

gambar yang buat aku sayu:
- anjing sebelah kubur tuan
- kristian lindung Islam tengah solat
- tuan anjing jumpa semula pet dia (Jepun dan US)
- mak dan anak menangis rumah dah ranap
- pakcik pakai suit menangis sebab negara dia dah ditakluk Jerman
- koala diberi minum
- askar US jumpa balik dengan anak dia
- bekas tahanan perang Soviet jumpa balik anak yang dia tak pernah jumpa (askar jerman yang ditawan Soviet mempunyai kedar survival yang tak tinggi - daripada 90,000 yg ditawan di Stalingrad, cuma 5,000 aje yang kembali ke Jerman)
- anak sarjan USMC terima bendera

banyak lagi powerful photos ni.....
