He's an American hero! Captain Walter "Wally" Schirra was one of the Original 7 Mercury astronauts. The only person to have flown the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecrafts, he logged a total of 295 hours and 15 minutes in space. His experience includes piloting Gemini 6 in the first successful rendezvous (with Gemini 7) in space. He also commanded Apollo 7, the first flight test of the craft following the shocking launch pad fire that killed three astronauts. Capt. Schirra has served in key positions for numerous companies, civic groups and service organizations. He's an author and an Emmy Award winner who has been inducted into four aviation halls of fame. A generation of Americans remembers him from his television coverage of the U.S. space program from 1969 to 1975 (including co-anchoring with Walter Cronkite when Apollo 11 landed on the moon). His remarkable accomplishments have made him a legend in his own time. Wally knows all about what it takes to win in life. He speaks across the country on leadership, business, team work and much more . . . with a terrific sense of humor.
