Hi allI'm wondering if anyone can help me out on two fronts with Apollo Support Crews 1 - is there somewhere that identifies the roles and tasks of those identified as support crews (as opposed to backup crews)? and 2 - has a list of the support crews for each Apollo mission been published anywhere that people know of? thanks for any help on this Cheers Craig |

As I know, has David Shayler published a huge work about every Apollo-Mission incl. Support-Crews, maybee I can find it at home

Paul Weitz also talk about the duties of the support crew in this transcript from the JSC Oral History series (highly recommended):

I am not sure how complete the list is on the first website link. The one I noticed, without going through them, is the absence of Bill Anders as CapCom on Gemini 8. I suspect the list is a bit incomplete. |
