G.I. Joe John F. Kennedy PT Boat Commander Action Figure 2000 Hasbro #81633
It is not uncommon for American Presidents to first prove their leadership abilities on the battlefield. However, few have displayed the valor and the total lack of concern for personal safety demonstrated by John F. Kennedy. Kennedy enlisted in the Navy in 1941. He was appointed Ensign in the Naval Reserve and received training as a PT Boat officer. By 1943, he was in the Pacific commanding his own PT Boat--the 109. In retrospect, it was a very dangerous assignment to have.
The heroic saga of John F. Kennedy and the PT 109 proves that one man can make a difference. Kennedy held on to the inscribed coconut husk throughout his Presidency, keeping it on his White House desk. It is now on display at the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum in Boston, Massachusetts.
