American hero John Glenn has died at age of 95. Glenn was a former NASA astronaut. Ironic that John Glenn would die just a day after the 75th anniversary of Pearl Harbor. After the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, Glenn quit college to enlist in the U.S. Army Air Corps. He as also an Air Force pilot during the Korean War. In 1958, John Glenn joined NASA.
