Boilerplate 1102A Hatch

During the Apollo program, a number of boilerplate command modules were constructed for use in training scenarios. This specific example, BP1102A, was used for water egress training. Apollo crews, including the crew of Apollo 11, used this to practice exiting the CM. Reproduction or actual components were used to fit the interior to simulate the CMs used in the Apollo program: the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, and the 5-person Skylab rescue vehicle.
