Perhaps there should be a adjacent memorial for those who died while
working on
the space program.

People like Givens, pad rats who died in work accidents etc. They
shouldnt be
forgotten......

Okay. What was America's worst rocket related accident with the
greatest loss of life?

As part of the US space program?

Two technicians were killed in Columbia in March '81, although this
isn't really "rocket related". I have very hazy memories of a SRM test
which involved fatalities, and equally hazy ones involving someone dying
during VAB construction, but neither of these are sourceable.
