TLS signed “Neil,” one page, 8.5 x 11, University of Cincinnati letterhead, May 2, 1979. Letter to Scott MacLeod, assistant director at the Energy Research Institute, who was organizing a 10-year reunion to honor the success of Apollo 11. This letter is Armstrong's response to Scott's invitation, in full: "Thanks for the note and the thought. As you may know, NASA is sponsoring a full day’s activities on July 20th, and I am committed to supporting their effort. Hope our paths cross again one day soon. All the best.” The letterhead lists Armstrong as “Professor of Aerospace Engineering & Applied Mechanics.” In fine condition.
A former Navy fighter pilot, Scott MacLeod worked with NASA's Apollo astronauts to develop and test the lunar module at Grumman's Bethpage facility in New York. And, if you were among the millions who tuned in for CBS's live coverage of NASA's moon missions from 1969 through 1972, you no doubt saw MacLeod, clad in a spacesuit and standing inside a lunar module simulator, providing Walter Cronkite with play-by-play descriptions of every move the real astronauts were making.
