Reagan’s Assassination Attempt
On March 30th, 1981, an attempt was made on the life of President Ronald Reagan by John Hinckley Jr. Unlike what you think, the would-be-assassin took a shot at the president in order to impress young actress Jodie Foster. The president was hit by a ricocheted bullet, but he survived. Later he would say to his wife, “I forgot to duck.”

John F. Kennedy
The 35th President of the United States was John F. Kennedy and he held this position from 1961 to 1963. His term was tragically cut short after his assassination in 1963. The moment has forever lived on in our memories thanks to footage and various tributes to it over the years. It is interesting to learn that JFK is the only Roman Catholic president in US history. He received plenty of praise for his excellent leadership skills in the midst of the Cuban Missile Crisis as well as the establishment of the Peace Corps.
