The Astronauts of Apollo 11 and Robert Morris

This is from Robert with a really great story:

Sara,

On the contrary, I for one am interested in your amazing web site.
Like you, I share some personal interest in the Apollo Program.

My late mother-in-law, who married an aviation pioneer named "Armstrong," exchanged personal letters with the mother of Neil Armstrong following the Apollo 11 moon landing.

The Apollo 11 command module pilot, Michael Collins, was a childhood friend of mine in 1945 in Ohio and later our paths crossed in the military service at Chanute AFB in 1958. I have an autographed portrait of Michael's father, Major General James L. Collins, on one of my walls. General Collins, among other achievements, was Aide-de-Camp to General of the Armies, John J. Pershing, in Mexico, in the Philippines and in France during World War I.

And I served under Buzz Aldrin in the same Army unit, before he entered the Air Force and went on to fame and glory.

There, I have probably told you more than you need, or want, to know about your Apollo Program.

I admire your achievements and your professional contributions to our nation and to the world!

My very best wishes to you and to Dudley,

Robert
