May 27, 1967 - Jacqueline, Caroline and John jr. at the christening of the U.S.S. John F. Kennedy

[@stinzz3]

Fast forward 30 years this would be my first duty station. Im so glad I was apart of the Kennedy crew. 1997-2001

[@pharma37]

My first as well.

[@izzy8246]

Jackie looks so beautiful

[@lisabrooks8092]

I remember this telecast. It was only a year later in 1968 that all hell broke out when Jackie Kennedy married Aristotle Onassis. You would have thought the world slipped off its axis. So many people were outraged at her. I understand now how she was seeking escape and solace, especially after RFK was assassinated. She feared for both her life and her children's lives.

[@jackr1779]

And she was very greedy!

[@isah6544]

Lisa Brooks She needed Onassis for protection. She feared her children would be next in line for assesination.

[@robynperdieu3434]

@@isah6544 and she was right. They got John too. JFK named his killers -- secret societies occultists usurpers and Zionists. Satanists. Caroline is alive because she married an Israeli. They did 9 11, tried to sink the USS Liberty on June 8 1967, had Israeli agents at Standing Rock when the Native folk were defending their water, and they destroyed the middle class with fraudulent loans via Ameriquest owned by Israeli businessman Roland Arnall.

[@Lenioogami]

She wanted his money and protection. His bodyguards are better protectors than the secret service . Besides she wanted to save taxpayer money

[@WilliamMurray-lr1bb]

she feared LBJ's homicidal reach after he had her husband murdered ..... he wanted to bed her so bad it hurt and she hated his psychotic guts !

[@libertyann439]

Caroline nailed it. There's video of Bess Truman christening a ship and was not able to crack her bottle. Wow!

[@ronnychindc]

I was out there on the pier in formation in dress blues, for like 2 hrs, itching and scratching for the whole 2 hrs. saw Jackie and the little girl like tiny little ants on the platform. I wouldn't have missed that for anything. Sure miss the JFK, she was a good old ship. CG, ABF3, Plank Owner 67-70, 1st big Med cruise 69 , flight decker.

[@1LEgGOdt]

Ronny charles my dad Served aboard her from 91-93. I got the chance to see her up close while she was in docked in Virginia before she had to go to sea in Summer of 98. I do miss her.

[@boomerlady]

Great job, Caroline! She looks shy in this video but lovely. Caroline did us proud!

[@dustyflair]

I went on a dependents cruise on that ship in the chesapeake bay in the mid 1980,s. My step dad was a RIO in the F-14 tomcat with vf-41...got to see some cool shit that day!

[@thomasbruce1367]

I was in the band.

[@mikegerwick868]

I remember. I was with you Tom.

[@kathleenpapaleo2720]

[@MB-ug4mp]

We lived in Virginia Beach. I was nine and our family was there that day. Awesome to finally watch this up close footage.

[@julietteyork6293]

[@marktharp4462]

[@myahollandia3552]

[@robynperdieu3434]

Traitor Johnson giving a speech gags me.

[@WilliamMurray-lr1bb]

[@cocotaveras8975]

Livia Moon So profound!

[@nodakcoyote]

And just guess what lone PO3 got stuck in the radio shack and missed all the excitement that day. Bummer.

[@ronnychindc]

Hey buddy, don't feel bad, I was out there on the pier in formation in dress blues, for like 2 hrs, itching and scratching for the whole 2 hrs. I saw Jackie and the little gilr like tiny little ants on the platform. I wouldn't have missed that for anything. Sure miss the JFK, she was a good old ship. CG, ABF3, Plank Owner 67-70, 1st big Med cruise 69 , flight decker.

[@kathleenpapaleo253]

Watched this on TV as it happened.

[@tonyadenton9196]

I believe Jackie looked her best in the years 64-69 maybe it was the fashion. She looked lovely in the video in white.

[@AQ-uc4bb]

Que precioso video

[@Mosbysraider]

... I was there in the crowd, 13 years old ...

[@entheosvillacencio3085]

The USN's last oil-burning flattop.

[@ravenel2]

[@762459]

Decades later Caroline christened the 2nd U.S.S. John F. Kennedy

[@CharlotteFairchild]
