10 October 2013. San Diego.
I was having coffee with one of my old Navy bosses and dive buddy from SeaLab 1, Walt Mazzone, Captain USN (ret) 95 years young. when both our cell phones rang and we got the word that Scott Carpenter, USN (ret) Astronaut/Aquanaut had passed away. Too many sea stories and too little space here to go into them.
