In honor of today being the birthday of the ultimate "Rocket Boy" Homer Hickam, it feels like the perfect time to share this video of Coalwood, West Virginia in McDowell County - where the story of the Rocket Boys all began. We wish Homer Hickam Official Page the happiest of birthdays and continued success in his writings. He has a new book out called "Don't Blow Yourself Up" that you should check...because I did and highly recommend it to go along, of course, with his famed Rocket Boys book. -
