I agree Jack, the story of Neal overriding the auto pilot was one I've not heard yet.
I'm a huge Apollo moon mission buff. My birthday's 7/20/71 -- two years to the day after the first moon landing by Armstrong and Aldren. Maybe because of that I somehow feel connected internally to this special date in American history.
I'm planning on purchasing Neil Armstrong's book FIRST MAN. It sounds like a good read from the interview.

The part I like best was where he decide to override the autopilot. That was a great leap for mankind.
What a great 60 MINUTES interview!
