In my opinion people who would disparage such great Americans as Scott M. Carpenter, Gordon L. Cooper, Jr*., John H. Glenn, Virgil I ‘Gus’ Grissom, Walter M. Schirra, Jr., Alan B. Shepard, are either deranged or evil. Take your pick.

I leave with this salute to these men and those that came after:

No disparagement here, but isn't Grissom the one who burned to death in a space capsule after he threatened to out the B.S. at NASA?

BTW, what do you know about Operation Dominic and the atmospheric nuclear testing from the late fifties to the JFK era?

Joint Soviet/US testing that ended up in every nation in the UN banning public access to Antarctica?
