I was telling my kids the story of the moon shot last night, and they asked me about the “old days” when the world wasn’t in color..... I explained to them the world was in color, but the cameras were not.

My dad was XO of USS Arlington (refitted carrier Saipan) communications ship. He was present when the astronauts splashed down after the landing on the moon. In 2009, I ran into a young lady working at Starbucks in El Cajon. Her dad was on the recovery team in the water to apply the collar, open the door and recover the astronauts. Small world.

I just tell kids that color had not been invented yet.
