Thats one small step for a man...

Thats one small step for a man... Seems hard to believe that the man who uttered those words is gone. Neil Armstrong dies at 82. We talk about courage and being brave. In my mind this defines it. Stop and think about this. There was no backup rescue plan if something happened. The Eagle may have landed in a rocky place. Rocks could have tipped over the lunar lander. Instead Mr. Armstrong took over and flew the lander by himself, almost running out of fuel. I remember watching and looking at the Moon every night they were there. Not really expecting to see anything, just looking in wonder meant. Armstrong had a pilots licsence before he could drive. He learned to fly on a Piper Cub. The Plane is in his hometown Museam. He never showed up at most big public events. He was a private man. He taught some and ran different companies over time. Some did question his lack of public exposer. I think he was a humble man that did the Job he was given and got back home. So to my fellow Ohioan and hero, hats off. Now Neil takes that last giant leap into the great beyond. God speed Neil, we miss you more than perhaps you knew. |

He was and one of the best ones. He just didn't brag and use it to get famous. He worked to earn where he was. Got there because of knowledge, and skill. He was a great pilot doing the first docking between two capsules in space, with the Gemini program. Maybe he was the last of a dying breed.

Neil was a great hero, along with all the other Apollo Astronauts.
