A look back at last year's James Doohan tribute, and one graf that just makes my jaw drop.
In addition to his cast mates and stars from the various trek series among those paying tribute to Jimmy was Neil Armstrong who after being introduced by Nichelle Nichols ('Uhura') said that although he had "ridden on thirteen different missions, and I had the privilege of commanding three, none of them had warp drive. I'm hoping for my next command to be given a Federation starship, and I would like to have a crew like Captain Kirk had." Doing his best "Scotty" impersonation Mr. Armstrong concluded his tribute by adding, "I have a confession to make... I am an engineer. From one old engineer to another, thanks Scotty."
Canadian WWII vet who took six rounds on Juno Beach and magnanimous in his fame. Class act.
