On this Thursday's memorial service, I hope NASA doesn't restrict
its comments to honoring fatalities in 'the NASA family',
as the press release states -- NASA is representing the entire
US space community in this appropriate event, and that should
include the US Air Force's manned space efforts of the 1960's,
when Major Robert Lawrence (America's first black astronaut-selectee,
whose name was added to the 'Space Mirror' at the Cape in 1997).
