Hey guys sorry for not updating for a while I'm quite busy recently
Here's a quick sketch of Neil ♡
Ed…………🥺🥺
Ed White has a lot to communicate to the engineers at Downey during an Apollo camera test, May 1966
Taking a moment on this Memorial Day weekend to remember Major James Blair White, a U.S. Air Force pilot and the younger brother of NASA astronaut Ed White, who was killed in action during the Vietnam War.
Jim was a 1964 graduate of the United States Air Force Academy, later earning a Masters degree in economics from Georgetown University. While serving in Vietnam, he flew with the 357th Tactical Fighter Squadron out of Takhli Airbase, Thailand. On November 24, 1969, Capt. White disappeared while flying a F-105D during a mission over the jungle-covered mountains of Laos. After three weeks, partial aircraft wreckage was discovered in the area but it could not be identified as the lost Thunderchief and there was no sign of Capt. White.
Jim was listed as Missing in Action on December 18, 1969, and remained MIA until 2017. Last year the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency officially identified Maj. White’s remains, and brought him home after nearly 50 years.

my favoritest boy in the whole entire world
The Gemini 7 crew and their sons watch TV together, November 1965.
I like to think that Ralph Morse was feeling burnt out and was too tired to stage elaborate photosets such as fence-building or pool parties. “You kids just sit there and watch TV, OK? I’m gonna go smoke a cigarette.”
