My father worked afor a division of Thiokol in a machine shop that made rockets and rocket parts for NASA back in the 60's and 70's. I'll never foreget him taking me into the back room and showing me some of the smaller rockets that were still there..and even the jet pack suit. I still have a letter signed by Gus Grissom thanking his company for thier zero tolerance for error status..and wishing them to keep up the good work for the next mission. Unfortunately, the next mission was tragic and the astronauts died on the launch pad. I cannot imagine the courage of those astronauts after some of the prior tragedies. God Bless Mr Armstrong and God Bless America !!!
