Wow, did JFK like putting his %^&* right where evil leaders had theirs or what?
I can’t quite remember the timing.
However, someone noted that JFK’s officers or at least his C.O. at the time, knew of this affair (and she was married).
IIRC, it was to him, “conduct unbecoming an officer” and he had JFK moved to a different place in the Navy. Assigned to a P.T. squadron, or so that rumor said. Anyone with better info, please share it with us all.
Now that being said, THANK GOD for the brave men all over WWII including P.T. squadrons.
Wow, post 1936-Olypmics

Romance with John F. Kennedy and FBI investigation
In November 1941, while John F. Kennedy served as an ensign in the US Navy’s Office of Naval Intelligence, he and Arvad began a romantic relationship.[4] Arvad was already being followed by the FBI due to the fact she was a resident alien and FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had concerns that she was a German spy, as well as for previously being photographed meeting Hitler. When the FBI discovered that the “ensign Jack” who had been visiting Arvad was, in fact, a Kennedy, they extended their investigation through wiretaps.[6] There was no evidence found to show Arvad, who was married, guilty of “any wrongdoing”. But that did not deter Hoover’s FBI from the continued use of listening devices when Arvad and Kennedy were together.[9]
Kennedy’s superior officer at the time, Captain Seymour A. D. Hunter, was quoted as saying that the U.S. Navy looked at Arvad as similar to Mata Hari. They thought she was using Kennedy to find out all she could about what was going on in the Navy Department. Captain Howard Klingman, then assistant director of the Office of Naval Intelligence, called Hunter into his office. Hunter was told that Kennedy needed to be put out of the Navy. Hunter pointed out that the situation was delicate because of Joseph P. Kennedy’s having been United States Ambassador to England. However, he believed the young naval intelligence officer was not privy to information that would be “more than a bit embarrassing”. Hunter advised that Kennedy be transferred to a seagoing unit.[3]
Kennedy was reassigned to a desk job in South Carolina in January 1942, and the relationship with Arvad ended after a few brief encounters. Kennedy later stated he thought Hoover might have had something to do with his transfer.[10] Kennedy and Arvad knew they were being followed, and in the FBI transcripts of their encounters they sometimes spoke to “whoever is listening”.[citation needed] In the end, Inga reflected on her time with Kennedy as a “passing affair”.[11]
