I remember the day as if it had been yesterday. My husband and I had been married just a couple of weeks the year before. He was stationed in Germany and we lived on the economy. It was around 6 PM German time and my husband was listening to AFN (American Forces Network) on his radio, and I was listening to a German variety show from a Stuttgart radio station that I listened to every Friday. Both my husband and I were shocked when we heard it.

...as do I...freshman year in high school, 7th period algebra class, Mr. DeAndrea, and I nearly flunked over the course of the year...
...a burst of static radio came over the loudspeaker...we were all surprised, and then an exciteable kid started spraying fake machine gun fire all over...the teacher, having gone out of the room, came back in and told us to shut up and sit down...the principal came on and told of Kennedy had been shot...in eighth period biology class, which I nearly flunked as well, we found out the rest of the story...
