[i]To Anders, Lovell would seem like a last-minute replacement, someone who never really had time to become a full crew member. As a consequence, he would later wryly suggest that they actually operated the mission with a two-and-a-half person crew. Anders and Borman would now take turns monitoring the CSM, with Lovell working almost independently, focusing his attention on the spacecraft's navigation system. 'By that time,' Anders states, 'I was really command module pilot... Frank and I were more of a pair than Borman and Lovell. Frank basically considered me the command module pilot... Frank gave me the responsibilities of making sure the spacecraft worked.'"[/i]
