My impression is Neil Armstrong is a quiet, humble man who feels he doesn't deserve the admiration, any more than any of the other Mercury/Gemini/Apollo astronauts, many of whom paved the way for him.

One thing I really enjoy about all the documentaries I love so much on this subject, is learning about the other astronauts... as kids we learnt/heard about Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, but never about the other guys, who are obviously just as skilled in their field....
