JFK
Come face to face with the most famous president in history
The blue eyed boy of American politics, Kennedy steered America through the bay of Pigs Invasion and the Cuban Missile Crisis. He paved the way for the moon landings and Marilyn Monroe sang for him at his birthday. The youngest president in US history, the nation went into mourning when he was shot in 1963. Though Lee Harvey Oswald was charged with the crime, controversy remains about who shot JFK.
