On November 29, 2001, English musician and songwriter George Harrison died at the age of 58. Harrison achieved global fame as
a member of the Beatles and went on to a successful solo career
that included frequent collaborations with many of the foremost musicians of his generation.

Harrison was born in Liverpool in 1943 and joined the group, then
known as the Quarrymen, when he was barely 15. Harrison became
the group’s lead guitarist and frequently sang, but he developed a reputation as the “quiet Beatle” and was oftentimes overshadowed
by the duo of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Nonetheless, his influence on the group, and rock music in general, was profound.

On November 27, 1868, without bothering to identify the village
or do any reconnaissance, Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong
Custer led an early morning attack on a band of peaceful Cheyenne
living with Chief Black Kettle.

Convicted of desertion and mistreatment of soldiers earlier that year
in a military court, the government had suspended Custer from rank
and command for one year. Ten months into his punishment, in September 1868, General Philip Sheridan reinstated Custer to lead
a campaign against Cheyenne Indians who had been making raids
in Kansas and Oklahoma that summer. Sheridan was frustrated by
the inability of his other officers to find and engage the enemy, and despite his poor record and unpopularity with the men of the 7th
Cavalry, Custer was a good fighter.

Three days after his assassination in Dallas, Texas, John F. Kennedy
was laid to rest with full military honors at Arlington National
Cemetery in Virginia.

Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, was shot to death
while riding in an open-car motorcade with his wife and Texas
Governor John Connally through the streets of downtown Dallas.

Ex-Marine and communist sympathizer Lee Harvey Oswald was the alleged assassin. Kennedy was rushed to Dallas’ Parkland Hospital, where he was pronounced dead 30 minutes later. He was 46.

Vice President Lyndon Johnson, who was three cars behind
President Kennedy in the motorcade, was sworn in as the 36th
president of the United States less than two hours later. He took
the presidential oath of office aboard Air Force One as it sat on
the runway at Dallas Love Field airport. The swearing in was
witnessed by some 30 people, including Jacqueline Kennedy,
who was still wearing clothes stained with her husband’s blood.
Seven minutes later, the presidential jet took off for Washington.
