Was an amazing man and the coolest under pressure. Read his book. Couldn't blame him for his solitude later at his farm. With all the fraudulent autographs and scams making money by using his name are some of the reasons he absolutely refused to do any autographs or appearances.
Another was his relationship and interaction with Buzz Aldrin. True odd-couple. Whats more odd is Aldrin never took a photo of Armstrong on the moon! The only image of Armstrong is his reflection in Aldrins face shield while he was photographing Aldrin. Thats an irony.
Of engineering and aviation minded that despised politics yet much of the decision to select him as the first was exactly that. I think he knew that and respected it by rarely speaking of the event later on.
