Paul Landis was a twenty-eight-year-old Secret Service agent in President John F. Kennedy’s Dallas motorcade on November 22, 1963. Landis is only one of two Secret Service agents still alive who accompanied Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline, on that fateful day. Though Landis was a witness to the events that day, he was never interviewed by the Warren Commission, and has kept his recollections private until now, including details surrounding a key piece of evidence.
