    Boys State alum Neil Armstrong became the 1st man to step onto the moon 50 years ago today.
    #OTD 50 years ago, Neil Armstrong took โ€œone small step for a man, one giant leap for mankindโ€ on the lunar surface with Buzz Aldrin following shortly behind. Above them, Michael Collins orbited in the command module Columbia. Do you remember this historic day? #Apollo11
