JFK Tapes Revealed: More Questions, Few Answers
We thought we knew everything about the JFK assassination – or at least, most of us figured we’d never know it all. But today the AP reports that a major new piece of evidence is put up for auction in Philadelphia – a recording of calls made from officials aboard Air Force One right after the president’s Nov. 22, 1963 assassination…
At over two hours long, the tape, sold to the Raab Collection by the estate of long-dead Kennedy advisor Gen. Chester “Ted” Clifton Jr., contains 30 minutes more evidence than the official national archive copy – and a flurry of references to shadowy figures identified only by code names straight out of Ian Fleming.
Who, for example, is “Monument” ? And “W.T.E.”? All mentioned by Air Force One staff after the assassination. Not to mention a contact known only as “John”?
And though the new tape supposedly clears up the location of JFK’s nemesis, Air Force General Curtis LeMay – who some theorists suspect of involvement in the assassination – it raises far more mysteries than it answers.
