Forty years ago, on January 28, 1986, we lost the Space Shuttle Challenger and crew. On February 1, 2003, we lost the Space Shuttle Columbia and crew. The Space Shuttle program was shut down a combined five years while investigations occurred, and fixes were put in place. We will never forget the loss of these brave men and women Astronauts.

Sgt (Join to see) gosh, I remember this disaster and the shock that ran through Charleston, South Carolina because Ron McNair was from Charleston and had family there. I was stationed at Naval Base Charleston SC Dental Clinic.
