Incredibly scarce, highly sought-after piece of space race and naval history. Compiled by the crew of the USS Okinawa (LPH-3), this commemorative book chronicles the historic August 7, 1971 Pacific Ocean recovery of the Apollo 15 astronauts (David Scott, James Irwin, and Alfred Worden). It features stunning, rare behind-the-scenes color photography of the splashdown, onboard crew operations, and the astronauts themselves.
All 104 pages are clean, bright, and completely free of writing, highlighting, or moisture stains. Boards show a moderate amount of shelf wear-expect typical rubbing, some scuffing, wear along the edges and spine, corners consistent with age. Binding remains tight and solid, but still should be handled with care. Please see photos.
