“Peacekeeping duties in British Guiana. A patrol of 1st Lancashire Fusiliers set out in canoes from their base in the jungle, watched by a group of Amer-Indian children from the bank. The Lancashire Fusiliers spent nine months in British Guiana in 1965. The deployment was the result of repeated civil unrest and violence caused by ethnic conflict between the African and Asian populations during the early 1960s.”

Buzz Aldrin took this picture of Neil Armstrong in the cabin after the completion of the first EVA. This is the face of the first man to set foot on the Moon, just hours earlier, on July 20th, 1969.
Neil Armstrong was a quiet self-described nerdy engineer who became a global hero when as a steely-nerved pilot he made “one giant leap for mankind” with a small step on to the moon. The modest man who had people on Earth entranced and awed from almost a quarter million miles away has died. He was 82.
