I read the books as a kid in the 1950’s and recently re-read all them courtesy of the Kindle version. I don’t remember seeing them on television.

Astro was the Anthony Dinozzo of his era: easy to despise but every one in awhile he did something decent for someone else. But at blastoff, he always stood. I always thought that was kind of dumb. RIP, Astro.

Jan Merlin played Cadet Roger Manning on the show. Roger Manning was a "wise guy" sort of a trouble maker.

I wonder if he ever got his Venusian pot roast that he was always longing for?

Frank Thomas played Tom Corbett. He was my husband’s cousin. He was a true gentleman & wonderful person.
