Why Gemini Astronauts (and Apollo block-1 Astronauts)during the sea rescue training dressed in 1963-64 aluminized G3C gemini suit type? All astronauts of I,II,and III group had the aluminized G3C suit? I know the guys of group I and II,but group III ? http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/6106/ap1s66588486ij.jpg http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/919/s66172530nu.jpg http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/3011/s66444971tz.jpg |

Just making good use of old suits that were obsolete, instead of using new suits for the training.Ed | |
