 Ceci n’est pas une crew portrait… This picture was made in 1993 and shows the astronauts with a Marine Corps background who were active at that time. They are (left to right) Ken Cameron, Charlie Bolden, Andy Allen, Bob Cabana and Terry Wilcutt. Similar portraits exist of the Navy and Army astronauts from that period. Ed Hengeveld |

Actually Bob looks like he's wearing a major leaf (looks gold to me) and I'm not sure about Andy. |

Wilcutt and Allen are Majors, Cameron is a Lieutenant Colonel, and Cabana and Bolden are both full Colonels. All I got to say is OHHH RAHH!!!! |

Obviously I can't match names with the picture. I should have said it looked like Wilcutt was a Major. Thanks for setting it straight. |

Have to disagree with you on this, Charles. Looking at his collar device, it looks like a silver oak leaf. |
