The Face of Grief

Former Presidents Harry Truman and Dwight Eisenhower at JFK's funeral, just after the service at St. Matthew's Cathedral.

I came across this photo today on Twitter. Michael Beschloss, whom I follow, posted it.  He said that
according to , this picture was taken after they saw young JFK Jr. salute his father. On this day, Truman and Ike ended their 11-year feud.

I am expecially struck by the look on Eisenhower' face. He must be looking at the little boy. It speaks volumes.
