So it was off to the moon and back. We carried out Apollo 10 1/2's
secret mission without a hitch. But then it was like it never happened. No headlines.
No ticker-tape parade for me. I couldn't tell anyone, even my family. When Apollo 11 launched on July 16th
and landed on the moon four days later, I was watching it on TV

exactly what they were experiencing. It was like I was up there with them. But I wasn't. I was here. You see the Saturn V right there?
