News about Harry S. Truman

Huntsville, Alabama, is incredibly proud of its nickname Rocket City, which has been praised for its crucial role in America's space race triumph. The city, which shifted from a cotton market town to a space travel hub in the 1950s, is home to NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, which led to the launch of the Saturn rockets that put the first man on the moon. However, there is also a dark side to this epic tale: many of the men who supervised the groundbreaking work were Nazis, who were recruited after the Second World War through a top-secret mission.

Despite his lawyers' assertions that he and his counsel have 'absolute responsibility' for his conduct as president, the former president said there will be 'bedlam' if he were to face trial. 'This is the way they're going to try to win,' Trump said in a courthouse.'

Her Majesty wrote the letter to Lewis Douglas (pictured inset bottom), thanking him for the'surprise' that occurred in May 1953. The Queen was never seen without stockings (showned in 1960 and right in 1959), a policy that established an unspoken precedent for other female members of the Royal family. The Princess of Wales and the Queen Consort are never seen without sheer stockings, with Princess Beatrice and Eugenie often complying. The letter, which was based on Buckingham Palace-headed stationery, is expected to sell for £1,600 at Lion Heart Autographs in New York, when it goes under the hammer. The Queen expressed delight in the following words: "I was so thrilled to learn the wonderful gift of your generosity and Mrs Douglas, and I'm so grateful to you both for your thoughtful consideration of me.' I hope you had a pleasant stay here, although it has been a short stay, and I do hope we will have a chance to meet again next time you visit us. Elizabeth, yours sincerely, as a result of your continued support and numerous messages.'
