Blue sky's and tailwinds Cmdr Alan Bean

Last surviving member of the Apollo 12 mission, he was the fourth man to set foot on the moon. He passed at 86.

Thank you for your service.

In all seriousness, I was thinking of Alan Bean yesterday.

A truly amazing life.
I can only imagine, how many laughs, the crew of Apollo 12 must have had.
Real pro's, doing an outstanding job, no doubt having the time of their lives.

One of the most interesting moon missions.

God speed to you sir and thank you.

Very sad to hear.
Only four Moonwalkers are left now: Buzz Aldrin, Dave Scott, Charlie Duke and Harrison Schmitt. Hard to believe...
