The anniversary of Apollo 11 moon landing, July 20. 1969, brings to mind feelings of pride in America, which have largely been wantonly erased in the past few years.
Last June Colonel Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin received a standing ovation when he appeared at a sold-out crowd at the Nixon Museum and Library, Yorba Linda, California. He sat on the stage in the elegant East Room, a replica of the White House room, and talked with his co-author of a book, which would be available to people eager to gain an autograph.
It was not a scintillating show…because, after all, Dr. Aldrin is not some common actor playing a Star Trek role.
He is the real thing.
