Command Module Endeavour
Apollo 15 was the fourth successful moon landing mission and the only Apollo mission with an all-U.S. Air Force crew. Col. David R. Scott, Lt. Col. James B. Irwin, and Maj. Alfred M. Worden flew this spacecraft, named Endeavour, to the moon in July 1971. The command module is named after the ship that carried Capt. James Cook on his famous 18th century scientific voyage.
Apollo 15 focused mainly on lunar science, and was the first mission to use a lunar rover vehicle. The crew spent four days traveling to the moon, then Scott and Irwin landed the lunar module Falcon on the moon’s surface. They spent 67 hours exploring and setting up scientific experiments. Worden remained in orbit aboard Endeavour conducting experiments and photographing the moon. Just over 12 days after launch, the crew returned safely, splashing down in the Pacific Ocean near Hawaii.
Project Apollo’s main goal was to land astronauts on the moon and return them safely to Earth. Beating the Soviets to the moon in the “space race” of the 1960s was an important part of the Cold War competition between the U.S. and the Soviet Union for prestige and world leadership in science and technology. The U.S. won the moon race when Apollo 11 landed on the moon and returned to Earth in July 1969. Apollo achieved six lunar landings through 1972, and 12 astronauts walked on the moon. Of the 29 astronauts who flew Apollo missions, 14 were Air Force officers or had Air Force experience.
The command module is on loan from the National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Hundreds of family members, civic leaders and community partners gathered at the Clarion Inn in Orlando to bid farewell to more than 200 Army Reserve Soldiers from the 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) during a deployment ceremony conducted Feb. 24, 2018.
“You are looking at an amazing formation of Soldiers who can take on any mission,” said U.S. Army Brig. Gen. Deborah L. Kotulich, commanding general, 143d ESC, addressing the troops and their guests packed into the Clarion Inn’s Grand Ballroom. “I for one couldn’t be more grateful or proud of their tireless effort.”
The ceremony honored the men and women of Headquarters & Headquarters Company, 143d ESC, who volunteered to leave their friends and loved ones to join the thousands and men and women supporting three peacekeeping operations in Central Asia.
“We will soon oversee the sustainment needs of hundreds of units conducting countless missions throughout Central Command’s Theater of Operations,” said Kotulich. “We have some of the finest military minds who will manage this complex logistical system that ensures the world’s finest military is properly supplied and equipped to overcome any adversary.”
Although their deployment will not officially begin until the Soldiers board a plane bound for their pre-mobilization site, Kotulich recognized the precious time her Soldiers sacrificed to prepare for the year-long journey.
“We went through not one but two major exercises in 2017,” said Kotulich. “The meticulous planning, coordination and execution for those exercises took place as the Army Reserve began implementing Ready Force X, a readiness program designed to prepare units to deploy in the shortest time possible. The [operational tempo] caused by this major transformation proved challenging but absolutely necessary to ensure our Army Reserve is the most capable, combat-ready and lethal federal reserve force in our nation’s history.”
To better provide a proper sendoff of ceremonial proportions, the 143d ESC turned to several community organizations who always stand ready to support America’s service members. Volunteers from United States Overseas Central Florida served cakes and refreshments, while the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2093 Community Band played popular patriotic tunes.
“It was a great honor to provide live music for these brave men and women,” said Wilbur C. Smith, the band’s director. “It’s a small but ‘harmonious’ way to express our gratitude.”
The formation’s dismissal signaled the Soldiers’ to find their friends and loved ones huddled throughout the ballroom. As parents, spouses and children embraced their Soldier one last time, Kotulich recognized the many sacrifices that will soon settle on those who must remain on the homefront.
“We owe our families a debt of gratitude for the love and support that allows each and every one of us to do this,” said Kotulich. “We understand this isn’t easy for them, but their efforts give us the strength to proceed forward and achieve more than we thought possible.”
