I had not seen that. Godspeed sir.

Surprised it hasn't been mentioned on any of the Auburn social media feeds (Mattingly was API class of '58). He carried 10 Auburn themed flags designed by Tazewell Morton (an art professor) to the moon with him and supposedly left one there.

He did. I knew Taz and they had one of the ones brought back hanging in their house.
