A retelling of an incident, 60 years ago, in which four Puerto Rican nationals sitting in the gallery of the House of Representatives suddenly unfurled a Puerto Rican flag and opened fire with pistols. Five Congressmen were hit, one critically. All recovered. Three house pages helped carry the critically wounded Congressman to safety -- that's the lead photo. Two of the three -- the one with the glasses and the one pointing -- later were elected to the House. Make sure you read the pullquote. Feb. 27, 2014.
