He’s no John Glen
As I recall, Yeager relays a story of Glen being a bit of a putz, landing his plane in soft sand and causing a huge headache in retrieval despite being warned repeatedly. If I remember right that is.
I'm sure Chuck would appreciate the compliment. He never suckled up to the Kennedy clan nor betrayed his country by covering for the Clinton's misdeeds as a US Senator. Brave man, no doubt, but he threw away any respect he gained as an astronaut during his long and sordid political career.
