  4. I vaguely recall this issue of Life magazine.

    I also remember that before the libtard's war on men (aka "toxic masculinity") American came together to celebrate greatness.

  5. Was fortunate to have met with Colonel Glenn on several occasions. He was a true gentleman and overall great guy. Always made time to talk to people. He loved to talk "hangar flying". He was hard to stop once he got going. Loved it!

    1. Glenn, alas, sold his soul to Clinton. He also got himself "loaned" to the USAF in Korea, rather than doing his job of supporting Marines. I have no use for him.

    2. Word. Truth is its own defense. As far as the end of the "Space Race" (pun intended), get the book WHITEY ON THE MOON. Res ipsa loquitur-The thing speaks for itself.

    3. Glenn DID support the Marines in Korea. He served two tours there — the FIRST with VMF-311, flying the F9F Panther. One famous squadron mate – and wingman – was Boston Red Sox legend Ted Williams. Glenn’s second tour was then with the Air Force’s 51st Fighter Wing. Glenn would achieve three confirmed aerial victories in a grand total of 27 missions.

  6. Wally Schirra, Al Shepard, John Glenn, Scott Carpenter, Deke Slayton, Gordon Cooper, and Gus Grissom.

  7. All these guys made it to space and back thanks to calculations' made by Mary Jackson, Katherine Johnson and Dorothy Vaughan and other black women...
    Maybe you should have digged a bit beyond the first pic that came across.

    BTW, Space X runs thanks to asian and indian engineers that keep the lights on!

    1. Maybe you should learn to use English (digged?) before dragging out your supposed moral authority in a public forum.

      Just a thought.

    2. Perhaps America is so dependent on asian and indian (sic) engineers because our Progressive public school system is too busy teaching what gender students should be rather than teaching them math and science.

    3. Instead of celebrating American greatness, it is so typical of "woke" libtard turds to cite what is wrong and drag out the poor "victims." Yeah, you and that Kenyan-born idiot who darkened the door of the White House for eight interminable years, just tear down our nation so you can drag it into the fetid swamp of the Third World.

    4. Not sure about Kenyan... However, he was adopted by an Indonesian and went to an Indonesian school. Only Indonesians can attend their schools, and that country does not allow dual citizenship. What does that tell you?

      That's why they fought so hard to suppress his Foreign Aid Scholarship and his "draft status," for lack of a better term right now.

  8. 55 years later the USA is still the only nation to perform manned Moon landings. How we did it is through the hard work of tons of people some of which are pictured above. Through picking the very best, working through all the issues thoroughly and safely making it happen, 6 times! Squabble all you want, we did it.

  9. Actually...the Naziis wrecked NASA. Oh, wait, they created and built NASA. Then the wrecked it.

  10. Ah...there's Scott Carpenter...my dad's bf and rabbit hunting companion just outside Denver, when they were 15yr. olds. When Scott became famous he wouldn't even say 'Hi' to Dad...broke his heart. So much for American F'ing heroes.
    This one's for you Dad.

  11. Landed on the moon? Seriously? If so, why all the provably fake pictures? Who set up the camera to capture the 'small step for man'..? Moon landing and Lee Harvey Oswald slide into the same category.
    Oh, another one: Russia is the boogie man....

  12. They went and came back from the moon multiple times... just wasn't for the reasons stated...
    And what they found (or verified) on the moon is beyond the average person's ability to overcome disbelief...

  13. Wait! I thought the moon landing was faked! Why would you need the "right stuff" if it was all made in a studio?
    The earth is flat.
    Horse dewormer kills COVID.
    Voting machines can change votes from republican to democrat.
    Lizard people control government and only candidates approved by them can be elected.

    Can someone help me sort my conspiracy theories. They are getting all mixed up and it is getting hard to know which ones to believe!

    1. Conspiracy theories are for people who flunked high school science.
