 The President's phone call to astronauts Major White and McDivitt aboard the Carrier Wasp from the fishroom of the White House, June 7th, 1965. Major McDivitt, I just want to say to you and Major White, well done. We're all in this country very proud of you and I think the entire world is grateful for what you've done and particularly for your safe return. You've both written your names in history and in our hearts. And God bless you both and your very fine families. Right, several million people in this country have been wondering for three days what you were doing to Jim's windshield when he called you a dirty dog. Major, several million people in this country have been wondering for three days what you were doing to Jim's windshield when he called you a dirty dog. Well, we might have glad that you had a safe return over to seeing you. Major McDivitt, you had a little trouble talking Ed back in from his walk the other day. Did you think you might be able to persuade him to come to CSS Weekend down in Texas if I'd get down there? I say you had a little trouble talking Ed back in from his walk the other day. Do you think you might be able to persuade him to come up to SEMA this week if I'd get down to Texas? Well, you talk to your families and we'll see if we can't get together down to the ranch about Friday or Saturday. I've been saving some little something for you. I heard Major White's wife say she wanted to go to Colorado, but you tell her to just hold off that trip until you get up to the ranch and I'll have my military aide getting touch with you in a day or two and I hope we can make it probably Saturday morning. Now, I just want to say this finally to the two of you. What you've done will never be forgotten. We can hope and we do pray that the time will come when all may join together to everyone in this nation and I think in the free world feels in your debt. I'll see you Friday or Saturday and we'll be in touch with you through Mr. Webb.
