Old Photograph Neil Armstrong Langholm Scotland

Old photograph of Neil Armstrong on a visit to Langholm in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. In 1972, astronaut Neil Armstrong, a descendant of the Clan Armstrong, was welcomed to the town, and made the first freeman of the burgh. He happily declared the town his home: " My pleasure is not only that this is the land of Johnnie Armstrong, rather that my pleasure is in knowing that this is my home town and in the genuine feeling that I have among these hills among these people. "
