Default Re: 40yrs - The Moon and a Song called Armstrong

My brother James was very lucky to be just under 2 months from age 5 the day they landed on the moon.

He got to see it on TV with our parents and Grandmother live that day.

I was only 1 year,1 month and week old. My other brother only 2 years and 18 days.

I have seen the films on PBS since then. So many times it almost feels like I did watch it.

I recently found at Goodwill a vinyl album of the moon landing. Not the actual broadcast but a narrorated version by the late great Mr. Walter Cronkite,with sounds from the broadcast included. In it's original sleeve to boot. I gave it to my brother James becasue he was there,I wasn't.

He loves it of course.
