This represents everything that is wrong with the government. Do you really think he would try and sell it if he 'stole' it?? This suit is a waste of taxpayers money.
Wow, not sure with who to side on this one.

After 40 years, it is a big waste. Some bureaucrat is probably jealous because he might be making some money.
WOW, Ridiculous
I better let my Dad know about this so he won't try to sell his WW2 issued military gear....If the government gets it I wonder where it will end up.

What has our country come to? Dr. Mitchell is and was a patriot, Makes me upset that I spent four years of my life serving this country so they could go and sue an 80 year old man over a camera! I am positive NASA hasn't been looking for that camera for 40 years
Obama probably needs the cash so him and the little woman can take another
trip on us tax payers.
