SPOTTED: Former Secret Service agents Clinton Hill and Gerald Blaine, who were guarding President John F. Kennedy the day of his assassination.
 
The pair was seen lunching at LINCOLN, a downtown D.C. restaurant devoted to another famous former president, on Wednesday. The group dined on a braised pork belly Cuban sandwich, salmon, a LINCOLN burger, and lemonades as they sat in the restaurant’s “Lincoln Chair.”
 
Earlier in the day, Hill and Blaine had some high-flying fun, as the U.S. Park Police took them to the Arlington National Cemetery, the Holocaust Memorial Museum, and on a helicopter ride.
 
The men have remained mum for nearly 50 years since JFK’s death, but spoke at park police trainings on Wednesday and Thursday.
 
Blaine wrote a book called The Kennedy Detail released in 2010 that reveals the details of JFK’s assassination from the Secret Service agents’ point of view.
