Not many non-basketball legends from southern Indiana. Gus Grissom is perhaps the exemplar.

There’s a n ice memorial at the Spring Mill State Park, near his hometown of Mitchell .

How cool! Gus is one of my heros. When I was at Purdue all our aero classes were in Grissom Hall. At the door was a big pic of Gus smiling in his Mercury suit. That smile got me through some rough days. If Gus did it, so could I.
