I've heard this "pin on the flag on the moon" thing over and over again.

I'm wondering if Neil Armstrong had several wives, or his one wife belonged to eight or ten sororities?

In any event, I'm surprized Apollo XI ever got off the ground with that many sorority badges on board.

I am going to clear up this moon thing once and for all-
Neil Armstrong's first wife Janet Shearon Armstrong is an Alpha Chi Omega (from the Purdue chapter.) He did not take her badge into space with him, he took his Phi Delt badge, but did not leave it on the moon.

Perhaps wife #2, Carol Held Knight is a Tri Delt?
Even if she is, he and Janet did not divorce until 1994 and I don't think that Neil has been on the moon in the meantime, so no Tri Delt badge on the moon either.
