| Governor takes one for the Chief |
President John
Kennedy saw action in WWII as a member of the U.S. Navy so he’s no stranger to military
snafu’s. Here’s a classic coffee moment June
6, 1963 aboard an event on the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk. The Commander in Chief was guest of honor at
a Navy fleet review off the coast of San Diego.
In
the photo, JFK is holding a cigar and coffee while deciding just how hard he
should chuckle.
Why
is the President laughing?
Seconds
before the image was snapped a Navy steward serving coffee to the VIPs spilled
the tray on then Governor Pat Brown, who was seated next to the President.
Classic
Caption: To Pat: "It only hurts when you laugh..." --JFK.
