Captain 11

One man in each century is given the power to control time.
The man chosen to receive this power is carefully selected.
He must be Kind. He must be Fair. He must be Brave.
You have fulfilled these requirements, and we of the Outer Galaxies designate to you the powers of Solomon and the strength of Atlas.
You are Captain 11!
(This was the opening of every show for 41 years.)

I grew up watching Captain 11 and even got the privilege
of being on one of the shows. A dream come true for an eight year old!
Thank you Captain for making everyone you crossed paths with feel special.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Dave.
You will be greatly missed Captain!
