The strangest of all was how fast RFK wanted to get JFK out of the morgue and into the ground.

RFK and Jackie were very close during the activities of the days following the assassination. Maybe more than you would expect to see considering the resources that were available to them.

She is always portrayed as the stoic martyr wife but she was very domineering in planning the mourning, the funeral and the selection of the gravesite, to the point of micromanagement.

RFK was her omnipresent facilitator during all of that. Perhaps it was political, perhaps it was personal, perhaps he was just a dedicated brother-in-law.
