    Your the man rccaulfield! Hopefully it will show "In the shadow of Moon" which You mentioned on one of your very first posts here,and like You Michael Collins the unsung heros of Apollo 11 is one of My favourite Astronauts.
    I read his Bio,He is a genuine lover of Spaceflight history and as You know was the main Man at a Space Mueseam for a long time.

    His biggest regret he claims was after Neil&Buzz safely sealed the hatch after the EVA, Mission Control Radio upped :"We here just want to let You know how proud We are of what You have done today"

    because of the diffrient delays in radio signal times his message of "and one here"(from the Command Module) came across as "Hey have You's forgotten Me"?(at least that's how he felt it did when he listened to the audio on his return to Earth) of course he had meant it as joining in on how proud He also felt at what Neil&Buzz had just achieved:)

    Woops actually it was Cu Giobach whomentioned "In the shadow of the Moon" here:
