[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3568294, member: 8862"] Did not see this posted elsewhere. Michael Collins was the 3rd member of the Apollo 11 crew that went to the moon in July 1969 but he never got to set foot on the lunar surface. While Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon, Collins piloted the Lunar Command Module circling about 60 miles above them. After they came back to Earth, the other two Apollo 11 members were household names but Michael Collins was kind of forgotten. Godspeed to Mr. Collins. Whether he walked on the moon or not I believe all those astronauts had cajones of steel, were crazy as hell -- or both!
