We are a greatful nation for your service, and what you and many other Americans who believed in American Exceptionalism did to get us on the Moon, no other nation has done it....

Does anyone here remember the Aviation Show he did on Warbirds in the mid 90's on I think Discovery or the History Channel?

Brave, brave man.
