From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vince Palamara is a leading civilian authority on the United States Secret Service, especially with regard to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. [1][2] He is a graduate of Duquesne University,[3] and a native of Bethel Park and South Park, Pennsylvania[4]

Palamara is currently in the process of having his book entitled Survivor's Guilt: The Secret Service & The Failure To Protect The President published,[17] as well as continuing his role as international consultant on the actions---and inactions---of the United States Secret Service on November 22, 1963, during the tragic assassination of President John F. Kennedy[18][19][20][21][note: Vince Palamara is also consulted, from time to time, regarding the Secret Service's interaction with other U.S. Presidents such as Franklin Roosevelt,[22] Harry Truman,[23] Dwight D. Eisenhower,[24] and Lyndon Johnson,[25] to name but a few, although the agents that protected President John F. Kennedy are his primary focus[26]].
Palamara is also the author of JFK: The Medical Evidence Reference.[27]
