I read the Ben Rich book "Skunk Works" about 15 years ago. I've never forgotten the ending. Towards the end of his life Kelly Johnson suffered from dementia. They wheeled him out on a runway and there was a fly-past of SR-71s. Ben asks Kelly "Did you see that? They were saluting you!" I was bawling when I read first that and I am tearing up now. Talk about Epic Men. |
