I can say that Rocky deserves it and that those who have been dedicated to seeing this accomplished are deserving of our utmost respect as well, particularly Col. Rowe. A more dedicated and truer individual would be difficult to find. May he rest in peace as well.
If you get a chance, take a look at the fil linked to above. It's got great footage of Rowe and others talking about their experiences.
