Where were you when the Space Shuttle exploded on 1/28/86?

I was just going on duty on the night shift at the chow hall at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany when one of the guys from the dayshift we just relieved ran back into the kitchen and told us the news. We spent much of the rest of the night listening to Armed Forces Radio and the German-language RTL (Radio-TV-Luxembourg, for the benefit of the German civilian KPs) as the drama unfolded.
