[i]I believe the guy in the photo is Jerry Ellzey, one of the new (like me) Gemini biomed systems engineers at that time. Gene Thomas was our leader as he had the job during Mercury. A couple of comments on the info in the collectSPACE thread: [list=1][*]The suiting trailer at Pad 16 was used during the manned Gemini missions because we left Hanger S at the end of Mercury and the O&C building (called Manned Spacecraft Operations Buliding back then) crew facilities were not yet completed/certified. [*]The trailer was not a "ready room", but it was a facility where the crew could hang out. In addition to the suit, biomed and comm checkout equipment, it had bedrooms, bath and small kitchen.[/list][/i]
