Episode 196 The Secret Service Question Part 7 William Greer and Tom Shipman

JFK The Enduring Secret

Episode 196 is the seventh in a mini- series wander covering the Secret Service and their possible involvement in the coverup, or the actual plot itself to assassinate President Kennedy. Today's episode is the second in our coverage of each of the individuals in the white house detail who were in Dallas that fateful day. In episode 195 we told the story of Roy Kellerman and we tell the story of Agent William Greer in today's episode 196. Agent Greer was the driver of the presidential limousine that fateful day in Dallas. His actions and inactions that day contributed to the demise of president Kennedy. Delving deeper into the individuals involved in the President's protection is for the purpose of solving the perplexing question of how men generally so loyal to the President, might have motivations to act otherwise. It is the seminal question regarding the inner workings of the secret service and their true orientation to President Kennedy. The inner workings of the Secret Service are just that...they are secret...and not much has been said by the agents outside of the official agency position.... since the assassination, but at least one man Vince Palamara is widely considered to be the resident expert on how the Secret Service figures into the assassination story. Mr. Palamara has done more original research on this topic than anyone else. Others have done extensive research including Doug Horne. So this series of episodes will give us a chance to better understand this often over looked aspect of the assassination story.
Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it, were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This real-life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.
