Present was Chief Justice Earl Warren, Chairman.

The Chairman. The Commission will be in order.
Mrs. Kennedy, the Commission would just like to have you say in your own words, in your own way, what happened at the time of the assassination of the President. Mr. Rankin will ask you a few questions, just from the time you left the airport until the time you started for the hospital. And we want it to be brief. We want it to be in your own words and want you to say anything that you feel is appropriate to that occasion.
Would you be sworn, please, Mrs. Kennedy?
Do you solemnly swear that the testimony you give before the Commission will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
Mrs. Kennedy. I do.
The Chairman. Would you be seated.
Mr. Rankin. State your name for the record.
