An unusual view of Wally Schirra, standing on the gantry at Launch Complex 19 where the Gemini-3 spacecraft is being checked out for launch in March 1965. Schirra was the backup command pilot for the flight.

He looks like a baker they let go out on the roof for a smoke.

Right I have repainted the launch gantry from the pink to the awesome Gemini red colour. That will be four...

Priceless photo. I wonder what Wally would think of what's going on today at the Cape.
