Lyndon Johnson Takes Oath of Office
President Johnson and three women
November 22, 1963. Lyndon Johnson takes the oath of office aboard Presidential Plane No. 1 at Dallas Airfield following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Johnson is standing next to former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy wearing a Chanel wool suit stained with her husbands blood. Johnsons wife, nicknamed Lady Bird - in the picture she is standing to her husbands left - later recalled how shortly after JFK was officially pronounced dead, she walked up to Jacqueline in the hallway of Parkland Memorial Hospital to give her a hug and saw the stamps in the murdered presidents brain on the suit. Johnson is faced with a Bible in her hand, Judge Sarah Hughes, the only woman in history to take the oath of office as President of the United States.
Vice President Johnson and his wife acted as hosts that day, welcoming the President and First Lady to their home state of Texas. The Johnsons were riding two cars behind the President in the same motorcade.
