There were always kids around at the informal business lunches and mens breakfast at the church and he always told us that we might work in space some day.
How cool is that?
I remember those days when the future was wide open, what happened to that, guilty liberals?
I think McDivitt is where I learned that even a failure is a success if you learn from it. They failed in one objective of Gemini 4 to attempt the first space rendezvous with the second stage of the rocket that launched them.
However they did do some other things that saved lives later on like the first attempt at using a sextant for navigation in space. Ed White made the first space walk on that flight too.
