Yeah I liked Shepard, Lovell and Schirra - all Navy guys. I also like low key Neil Armstrong - another Navy guy. Armstrong was also a great pilot.

Had an engineer friend who work at some NASA facility (can't remember, think in Houston) that Gordon Cooper would visit from time to time. He would have an ID clip tag with his name on it, but the picture of a chimp glued on top of his picture.
My friend told me no one ever questioned him about it, even security.
Got to admire a guy like that :^)
