Simon served in the Coast Guard during World War II.
The image of Captain America Number 1 comes from a wonderful blog, Hitler Getting Punched (http://hitlergettingpunched.blogspot.com/).
I was sad to learn that Commander Scott Carpenter, the second American in space, has died. He trained to be a naval aviator during World War II, then served during the Korean War. After he flew into space, he joined the Navy's Sealab project. John Glenn is the last surviving Mercury program astronaut.
