July 20, 1969: One Giant Leap For Mankind
#7
My flight to Vietnam had been called but I was watching a tiny B&W TV someone had set up on a counter pleading with them to get started down those steps. Saw the foot go down and ran to get in the back of the line (which guaranteed a middle seat for the first leg of the long flight(s).

Climbed aboard an Orange Braniff stretch jet to fly into a war zone. (In fact we changed planes at least twice; I don't remember what we flew into Tan San Nhut.)
