The first three Americans to travel to space were, from left to right, John Glenn; Virgil 'Gus' Grissom; and Alan Shepard. They personified the Thomas Wolfe-coined term, 'the Right Stuff.'
On February 22, 1961, the Space Task Group announced that Shepard, Glenn, and Grissom had been chosen to begin special training for the Mercury Redstone 3 vault into space. More than a month before the public announcement, Robert Gilruth personally had made his choice, even to the exact flight order of the men selected.
