I have an ALT flown cue card presentation which was originally presented to Deke Slayton by all four members of the ALT crews (Haise, Fullerton, Engle, and Truly). Each crew member has signed using only their first names. I was wondering if anyone could venture a guess as to which of these four astronauts inscribed this piece.

My guess is Joe Engle. The letters look similar to those in an inscription on a photo I have. |

Yes, definitely Engle. I have a handwritten (or I should say hand printed) letter from him and the writing is identical. |

Here is a scan of a ALT crews signed photo I received back in the mid-1970's. Who inscribed this photo? I think it was Fullerton. |

John, definetely Fullerton on the above post of yours and for sure, as others suggested, Engle on the flown ALT cue card presentation, which is indeed a very nice piece from the Slayton collection. |
