Odd that John Glenn was never a Scout.

[GernBlansten]

I wonder how current that list is. Nowak is listed as current. She was released from NASA after she tried to kidnap and kill her astronaut boyfriend's girlfriend.

And Wally Schirra passed away after the list was compiled.

I have it on reliable authority that John Glenn wanted to be a Boy Scout and a member of the Junior High Rocket club, but the Scoutmaster of the time said unless he devoted all his time to scouts, he couldn't join.

According to a reader review at Amazon, Glenn's hometown didn't have a Scout Troop:John Glenn was always the Boy Scout of the astronauts, though interestingly he was never an actual Boy Scout. As we find here, his town didn't have a Boy Scout troupe, though a bunch of his friends and he formed their own, similar organizationhttp://www.amazon.com/John-Glenn-Memoir/dp/0553110748

My wife refers to me as a 'space cadet' fairly often...does that count?

Heh, heh, my son - when he was just learning to speak - had heard her call me that so often that one day after I goofed on something, he looked at me and pointed, laughing, and said in his dyslexic way, "Papa, you're an astronaut!".

Hey, I'm IN!
