Let's make this birthday one to remember.

66 years old (Born on July 03, 1958)

Happy Birthday, Aaron Tippin! Another year and you're still "Workin' Man's Ph.D." in showing us how country charm gets even cooler with age. You've soared high—figuratively and literally—in music, aviation, and giving back to our troops. Honestly, is there anything you haven't mastered?

From your patriotic anthems that kept spirits up to your down-home hits reminding us of life's simple joys, you've never missed a beat (pun absolutely intended). Here's wishing you another year filled with sky-high adventures, inspiring songs and plenty of reasons to flash that trademark grin.

Cheers to the original honky-tonk hero—keep flying high!
