Summary
| Description |
"Fastest Marines-General David M. Shoup, Commandant of the Marine Corps, hears from Lieutenant Colonel Thomas H. Miller, Jr., right, a first-hand account of how he recently broke the world closed course aviation speed record. Listening in is Lieutenant Colonel John H. Glenn, Jr., left, who completed the first nonstop supersonic coast-to-coast flight in 1957 and is now one of the nation's seven astronauts training for Project Mercury. Colonel Miller set his record of 1216 miles-an-hour in an F4H-1 "Phantom II" all-weather jet fighter, a model of which General Shoup holds. The two top Marine aviators visited the Commandant in his offices at Marine Headquarters in Washington, DC, September 15."
