The crime scene photo of Giuseppe "Joe the Boss" Masseria. He was playing cards with Lucky Luciano. When Lucky went to go take a piss, 3 men walked in and shot Joe up.
Maybe it wasn't just luck that Lucky was taking a piss.

Johnson listening to radio comms and other audio of our boys getting massacred. He broke down. This is when he decided to elevate the war and send more troops in. I think this was '68.
Had a huge (for its time) HDD growing up that my dad had a ton of .wav recordings of Watergate proceedings, speeches, and 3 Stooges recordings. Among all thhose were pictures like this, which my dad showed me when I was probably 7 or 8. Old enough to understand what was going on. He had a picture of G. Gordon Liddy holding his Zippo flame under his hand at a WH Press Meeting. He was one of Nixon's advisors, andreporters kept hounding him qith questions, so he took out his lighter and roasted the palm of his hand in front of all of 'em to show he wasn't gonna say shit.
