 My hero

I was a junior in high school when Gurney won that race in Spa, and I found out about it in the Monday morning sports section of the Washington Post. At a time when America was involved in so many conflicts at home and abroad, when our space program had recently suffered the deaths of three astronauts on the pad at Cape Kennedy, Dan Gurney's accomplishment, along with his win with A. J. Foyt in the Ford Mark IV at Le Mans, gave people like me a renewed sense of pride in what could be accomplished by Americans with talent and dedication. Many years later I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Gurney, and he was everything you'd want your hero to be. Friendly, personable, And gracious. Thank you for this reminder of a great victory.
