Great letter. Gene Kranz is my personal favorite. I was inspired to my line of work by the space program in my childhood. We need to pass this pride on to our children.
I have met him several times. When I was a teacher down in League City a few years ago, his grandson was one of my students. Great guy!
“We need to pass this pride on to our children.”
Strongly agreed.
And now is the time to fight for that legacy.
A nation born of the frontiers must keep leading on the frontiers, or we will wilt away and others will take our place determining the course of human history. Others that are not believers in freedom I may add.
I implore everyone to not just sit and do nothing.

Takes literally two minutes.
It’s time to be heard.
That list of heroes is counting on us now.
We watched them make history, we watched them walk on the moon, fly shuttles never before flight tested before and do things most of us can only dream of doing.
Many risked all for our nation.
Now they call on us to not let the legacy they gave us die in Obama’s hands.
