Apollo 16

In early 1972 GOLDSBOROUGH was assigned as part of the back-up unit for the Apollo 16 Recovery Team and spent the day of 15 April practicing retrieving the Apollo capsule with specially installed equipment on the fantail.

“We didn’t get to pick up the actual capsule, but we did get to see it back at Pearl.” Bob Gagne
