Met an historical figure!
I just returned from a 2 day training session.

Our guest speaker was Apollo 13 commander / Lunar Module Pilot Fred W. Haise.

Apollo 13 was to be the third mission to land on the Moon. An explosion in one of the oxygen tanks crippled the spacecraft during flight and the crew were forced to orbit the Moon and return to the Earth without landing. This flight was made into a movie with Tom Hanks & directed by Ron Howard.

Fred Haise also piloted the moon shuttle test flights.

It was pretty cool to meet him!
