@longandow.... Yes, I noticed.
@marmal4de.... Your right, but we lay claim to it regardless. Marines gave you the right to claim Libya, Mexico, half of China, Belleau Woods in France, Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, Sipan, Tarawa, Japan, Korea, Granada, Iraq, and I could come up with several more if I took the time. We claim the frickin' moon too. John Glenn - Mercury Mission, Walter Cunningham - Apollo 7, Fred Haise - Apollo 13, Jack Lousma - Slylab 3, Gerald Carr - Skylab 4, Vance Brand - Apollo-Soyuz were all Marines! There were 19 more Marines involved in the Space Shuttle program over 135 missions.
@brain64.... Your right also, I know von Braun was a Nazi, wore the SS Uniform to required functions. I was passing 'American Propaganda', hell they did and the Russians do. The thing is, he swore off all that and did us a service in the 50's, 60's and 70's. I forgive him.
