Legends.
Legends of the Apollo Space Program were on hand Friday night for a two hour presentation at Theater In The Woods at the EAA Airventure in Oshkosh. Speaking on the right is Gene Kranz, flight director during the Gemini and Apollo programs. Gene is probably best known for being in charge of bringing the Apollo 13 crew home after their aborted moon mission. To the left of Kranz is Walt Cunningham, who was on Apollo Seven. Next is Jim Lovell who was on Apollo Eight with Frank Borman (to his left in yellow) as well as Apollo 13 with Fred Haise on the far left. Out of sight to the left are Buzz Aldrin (Gemini 12 and Apollo 11), Joe Engle (backup for Apollo 14 and 17), and Al Worden (Apollo 15). All of these guys were still very sharp and recalled things like it was yesterday.
