Curatorial Note:

Although the Museum has recorded multiple oral histories with individuals who saw the Kennedys at Carswell Air Force Base in Fort Worth, Barbara Patterson is the only one interviewed to date who recalls seeing them arrive on the night of Thursday, November 21, and again the following day when the presidential party left Fort Worth for Dallas shortly before the assassination. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
