I have only seen a handful of photos that show astronauts onboard their recovery helicopters. Here is a photo of Buzz Aldrin and James Lovell onboard the recovery helicopter after the Gemini 12 splashdown. |

This Space Review article about Helicopter 66 has a photo of the Apollo 12 astronauts onboard the recovery helicopter. |

Great photos. Thanks for posting. The black and white photo has a unique feel to it. Those were the days. |

Photos of crews aboard recovery helicopters also exist for (from memory) Gemini 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11 and 12. |

I don't recall seeing Gemini 10, but another I have seen is Apollo 10. |
