I was home on leave from boot camp
 
I was a little over four and actually remember watching it with my parents.
Made me a rocket geek and sci fi addict.
 
The entire event bored by 13 year old self and dragged on forever. Neil Armstrong stepping on the moon didn't interest me as much as Lost in Space or other docudramas about outer space exploration that were in vogue at that time.
 
I don't remember because I was 4 years old. I'm sure my family was watching. My older brother was big into the moon landings. I remember watching some of the other space missions as I got older.
 
I was in the well house. We had a big storm that knocked the power out. When it came back on it was my turn to go and prime the pump and get it started again. Ah, the joys of growing up out in the country. I did get see some of it later. Amazing what can be accomplished with enough money and commitment.
 
I had to go hide on the dark side of the moon.

I mean really, I can't get privacy anywhere anymore.
