    My daughter and I went to the Gen. Tom Stafford air and space museum today in Weatherford, OK. On display was the Speedmaster that he wore on Gemini 6 and 9. They also had on display a quartz Speedmaster that was worn during the eighth shuttle mission to the International Space Station. The last watch on display was this Russian Leader Watch that was presented to Stafford by Vladimir Putin in 2009.

    I wonder if @Mad Dog kept his, or didn't rotorheads get issued with them?

    :p

    We were not issued the MC-1 knife in 1986...we were issued a knife with a leather handle that was secured in a leather sheath. I still have it but I'm not sure where it's located.
