Previously unreleased recording: On November 22, 1963, the Situation Room at the White House relays a news report to Air Force One that President John F. Kennedy has been shot. The plane’s code name is Wayside.

The complete audio recording from Air Force One on the day of Kennedy’s assassination has now been made available online, including 42 minutes of previously unreleased tape.
