Contains memoranda issued by leadership of the Irish national security force An Garda Síochána to officers regarding American president John F. Kennedy's visit to Ireland in June 1963. Most document the logistics of deploying members for the event. One memorandum requests assistance monitoring two Russian journalists expected to attend and the removal of "playcards, slogans, or other offensive matter" that could negatively impact the image of the visit. Also includes a contemporary supplement to the Irish Independent regarding the visit, a video produced by The Irish Times for the 45th anniversary of the visit, and an Irish Times special issue from the 50th anniversary of the visit.
