I remember it well - from the 11 year old civilian side. I picked a great time to be born. Missed WW II and got to see the space age unfold. Sorry I missed the sound barrier, but you're still my favorite aviator.

General Tom Stafford, an officer and a gentleman. One of the smartest of men I have ever had the privilege to meet.

I met Tom Stafford when I was 12 years old, my first astronaut and an Apollo one to boot. Really nice guy.

I met Mr. Stafford once at Logan Airport in Boston. He was very nice to me and we had a great conversation about his career. Great man.
