0:00.0	Welcome to JFK in The Enduring Secret.
0:06.3	I'm your host, Jeff Crudel.
0:24.2	Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the podcast.
0:27.8	Today's episode is episode 211.
0:32.4	It's not often that I'll tell a personal story about an FBI agent.

1:59.0	I see the man come alive just a little more in my own
2:03.4	mind. I'm just glad that we had this one courageous FBI agent at this very crucial moment in time.
2:11.7	It was willing to tell a story after the fact of what he saw and experienced in the military investigation.
