Lansing Heppe Bennett, a 66-year-old physician, was killed on the morning of January 25, 1993, at the entrance to the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia. Dr. Bennett had served in the U.S. Marine Corps and the U.S. Navy during the Korean War and later worked as a physician in both the private sector and for the U.S. Government. In 1991 he joined the CIA as a physician in the Directorate of Intelligence, where he monitored the health of foreign leaders.

On that Monday morning Dr. Bennett was in his vehicle waiting in a line of cars to turn into the CIA main entrance when a gunman moved from car to car firing a rifle. Dr. Bennett was fatally shot; another CIA employee, Frank Alanson Darling, 28, was also killed. The attack was a brazen act of violence that shocked the intelligence community and the nation.

If anyone has information about the attack or remembers that morning at the Langley entrance, please share what you know.
