Today we talked about our blog assignments pertaining to J.F.K's life with the exception of his assassination. We learned that Kennedy was a Harvard graduate, Roman Catholic, and was part of a very wealthy family. Kennedy served in the military. He was not originally admitted due to a bad back, but his father pulled some strings and Kennedy ended up serving in WWII. Kennedy had Addisons Disease which many people did not and do not know.One of the first things that Kennedy did after he was elected was starting the Peace Core. He was the first Roman Catholic President. He also put a lot of money into the Space Program and vowed that America would land the first man on the moon. I did not know quite a bit of the information about Kennedy that was said today. I'm sure that I will learn a lot more about him and his life by the end of this project.
