Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,

THANK YOU
for your service!

Been out at the garage giving Baby its long-overdue Spring Cleaning. Haven't done the first car show this year and it's time to have the car ready to go.

My dad went out to Edwards several times during his years working as an aeronautical engineer at Arnold AFB here in TN. I don't know much about the things he worked on because he wasn't allowed to discuss it - - top secret stuff and all.
But I do have a photo taken of him giving a lecture at Edwards and in the group was Neil Armstrong. Dad loved that photo because he was so thrilled to meet Neil. Some of the work he did helped put man in space and on the moon, so meeting Neil was a big deal to him.
