Buzz Aldrin is a Boy Scout and a Freemason. He is the second man to have walked on the moon, and the first Mason to set foot upon the celestial globe, making hi...m one of the most famous Masonic Scouters in History. When Buzz traveled to the Moon, he carried this Masonic flag with him. Freemasonry was very important to Aldrin, and when he stepped out onto the lunar surface, he honored not only the Craft, but every Mason who has ever lived. Under a special deputation from Grand Master J. Guy Smith, Aldrin was given the authority to open a Representation of the Grand Lodge of Texas on the Moon and establish Masonic Territorial Jurisdiction there. Aldrin carried the deputation to the Moon, along with a 33 Scottish Rite flag, which he unfurled on July 20, 1969, stating that "our flags" were being planted on the lunar surface. That day, mankind finally walked on the Moon in peace and friendship two virtues that every Mason carries within his heart. Aldrin was also a Boy Scout. The peril of his mission required him to train for every possible scenario, as even the smallest mishap in space could lead to certain disaster. His years of rigorous astronaut training exemplified the two simple words of the Scout motto: BE PREPARED.
