What a grand time to be alive (I was: 12 years old that year). I took my transistor radio to school that day so I could monitor the flight. Compare the national mood then to today's. Compare the American optimistic and decent culture then to the decadent "progressive" one today. Those were some of our golden years, long before the West began its slow decay and decline.

A proud day for the USA and Mr. Glenn.
