Morning Glory Snip and Sam~
What a great American and fighter jock . . . I thought Sam Shepard did an excellent portrayal of CY in "The Right Stuff". Great read folks.

Did you know Chuck Yearger did a cameo in The Right Stuff?
He was the bartender at Pancho's as they guys from NASA were trying to round up fighter jocks for the new space program.
Pancho's would have been a hell of a place to hang out back in tose days. Good steaks, drinks, and a few gals snagging up some of the flyboys.

Afternoon w/w. I didn't see the Right Stuff but I did read the book years ago. I have a huge list of movies I need to see.
