Your story brought tears to my eyes as well as remind me of my own handshake with history.

I took flying lessons at Frederick Field in Maryland and attended a few of the air shows there when I lived in Maryland.

One of my most treasured memories was meeting Col. Morgan at a book signing during one of the air shows. I shook his hand, bought his book and famous photo of his crew and plane, and he signed it.

How super human these men where. I doubt there will be such a generation again.
