…counting since that first human footprint on the moon. It took brains and guts to sit atop a missile aimed at the moon, going where the odds of survival should anything go wrong were slim to none. And things had gone off plan several times before. Still, three men, climbed into the capsule to take those odds. They beat them by climbing back out alive several days later.
When you’re feeling weak or not up to any particular challenge, think of the Apollo 11 crew and all the support people who made it possible for this incredible human achievement to be logged in the history books. If they did it, you can do it, too.
This is one operated by PENNSTAR, affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania Hospital. I’ve seen these helicopters in action. It’s impressive. The pilot’s fly in all kinds of weather and have to land at the sites of car wrecks, train derailments, even other plane crashes. This is difficult duty to say the least. Then there is the pressure of flying with someone’s life in danger, which adds more pressure to an already stressful task.
Of course, my favorite is the Gadsden Flag in the upper left corner. (That’s the one that says, “Don’t Tread On Me.”) Don’t miss the George S. Patton one in the upper right, either. There are the ones with the American Revolution theme, space exploration, and nautical history. My supplier must have a deep well of these because I send approximately 50-60 pieces of mail to both US and international destinations each month. He’s never run out and I’m grateful.
