The Founding of the Warren Commission

Later it became known as the Warren Commission after it's chairman, Earl Warren, Chief Justice of the United States. Johnson directed the commission the evaluate matters relating to the assassination of JFK and killing of Oswald, and to report all findings to him. Ironically enough, a CIA agent who Kennedy fired, Allen Dulles, led the investigation for the Warren Commission.
