I was sitting in the number 4 gun tower at the Idaho State Prison. I
had smuggled in a radio in my lunch box which was -strictly- against
the rules and when they said those magic words
" Tranquility Base, The Eagle Has Landed" I started yelling and
cheering so loud you could hear it all over the old "Greystone
hotel". What a night! I had never been so proud to be an American.
And I still am even after the "January Disaster".
