Anyone know what Presidential Order

Hello all, Im interested in finding the Kennedy Presidential Order that disband the CIA (EO *****)?

Anyone know?

He didn't. He never got the chance. His last official order signed, was to begin withdrawing some troops from Vietnam. He was going to dismantle the CIA after re-election, with Bobby leading the effort, if I recall correctly....

any links to any documents or additional information about this?

On November 14, Kennedy signed an order to begin the withdrawal by removing 1,000 troops. In private, Kennedy let it be known the military was not going to railroad him into continuing the war. Many of the hard-line anti-Communists including FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover would have to be purged. Bobby Kennedy would be put in charge of dismantling the CIA. President Kennedy told Senator Mike Mansfield of his plans to tear the CIA "into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the wind." But these plans had to wait for

Kennedy's reelection in 1964. And in order to win that election, he had to secure the South. Which is why Kennedy went to Texas later that month.

Could John Kennedy have stopped the war in Vietnam, as was his obvious intention? America will never know. His command to begin the Vietnam withdrawal was his last formal executive order. Just after noon on November 22, President Kennedy was murdered while driving through downtown Dallas, in full view of dozens of ardent supporters, and while surrounded by police and personal bodyguards. Twenty-eight years later, grave doubts still linger about who pulled the trigger(s), who ordered the assassination, and why our government has done so little to bring justice forth.

Quickest one I could find about it....

Here's the site link, from an older magazine...
