I actually met buzz aldrin back in the time I was serving with the German army, we were taking part in the parade in Paris for the first time since WW2 so it was very touchy lot of press etc.
I was a press "boy" they were looking for one to give interviews and I was assigned - one day we were supposed to take part in some opening of an old house something of importance and we were asked to take part, press and french celebrities there.
As soon as the press were gone the celebs went to their side and we went to the other lol - there was one man who was still talking to some of the german soldiers and I asked - who's that guy? And somebody said thats buzz aldrin - I had no clue who he was until somebody told me -
So I had a small chat with him and I got an autograph - To Nico
Overall he was very pleasant and very nice to talk to not arrogant in any way or form just a cool dude.
