Rest In Peace John Glenn ( 1921-2016 )

As a Marine Fighter Pilot...he flew 149 combat missions in two wars...WWII and Korea.

As a Test Pilot and Astronaut...He was the first American to successfully orbit the Earth.

And...As an American Icon...He was the longest-serving United States Senator in Ohio history.


Godspeed John Glenn !!

He definitely led by example! True American Patriot in every sense of the word. He was one of the reasons I wanted to be an astronaut as a young kids. I grew up as the space program was in full swing. Godspeed John Glenn.
