Kennedy Tours Cape Canaveral (1962)

Using StumbleUpon a couple of nights ago I was directed to this incredible photo from NASA.


In this photograph from 1962, President John F. Kennedy attends a briefing given by Major Rocco Petrone during a tour of Blockhouse 34 at the Cape Canaveral Missile Test Annex. Also in attendance are Vice-President Lyndon Johnson and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara.

Man, is it me or does LBJ look incredibly bored?

    LBJ does indeed look bored. But the guy with the sunglasses and cigarette seems overly intent. Soviet spy perhaps?
