This is Mr. James Hendricksen from Savannah, Georgia. He's showing off the best-decorated rocket I had the pleasure of catching at LDRS 25 - Rockets for Mummies, an homage to the very popular `…for Dummies' series of instructional books.

Jim is wearing the vest of an LDRS organizational volunteer. The ICBM acronym on the bill of his hat does not stand for intercontinental ballistic missile, but signifies the South Carolina prefecture of the Tripoli Rocketry Association.

Here he is explaining the design and special properties of Rocket for Mummies. Jim is level-3 certified which means that he is cleared to purchase and launch rockets with M, N and O motors (mere, non-certified mortals have to make do with A through E.) He also goes by the nickname Crazy Jim.
