but that is, next: utterly (Lunar) Eclipsed! ..via selection of the "Authorized Certifying Officer" for this unprecedented Space- flight *drew ... none other than ..the redoubtable C. W. Bird * Author! Author! (And I'm willing to bet an entire year's perks of ad-lib barrel-rolls in the Company Lear Jet that they didn't just invent 'Ol C-W') ... no Resident Pythons in the NASA du jour, IIRC. ;^> |

C.W. seems to have been real.
I'm not sure who you're thinking of? Buzz Aldrin - Timeline | Facebook Who's the one you're thinking of? Thanks! Cheers, Scott. |

Nice sleuthing ... no worries here,
Did you miss the "didn't" part of that sentence? ..as I tried to indicate my sense that: to have 'made up that name? ..would have been {most likely} a sword-breaking/epaulets-ripped-off !! Offense. i.e. Beyond the pale. [in matters of Military theatre, say] Seems that my assessment was correct :-) And a Tough 'ol Bird be he: 95 and still ticking |

I blame the heat. :-) Thanks.
