Hard to believe... the Kennedys always seemed bigger than life...

I don't know about that. He seems like a drunken passenger killer to
me. I typed a discharge for an airman in the SC state prison for that.
Aren't the Kennedy's known for drowning passengers, although JFK was
at least sober when his luck ran out. Didn't another Kennedy put a
plane in the ocean, although nobody drowned. Impact killed them all.
There was the Kennedy that hit a tree while playing football on skiis.
Was it Joe who got blown to smithereens doing something risky. [He did
nothing wrong beyond volunteering for the job]. Larger than life? As a
group you might say they are unlucky.
