Remembering the Moon Landing

When Ohio native Neil Armstrong landed on the moon 35 years ago this week, Americans gathered around their televisions to watch. John Smith was a teenager in the summer of 1969 and lived about 20 miles from Armstrong's family. He made an audio recording of the landing and offers a personal recollection.
