“Jim, don’t wave at him! He knows what we did to the honeymoon suite!”

If one picture screams Ed White it’s this one. Somewhere in the 1960′s.

A Day at the Zoo, or, astronauts during jungle survival training in Panama, 1963. I love how serious and focused everyone in the second photo looks, except for Pete who is on the ground petting the peccary. Classic Pete.

Look at those sweeties

In the kitchen!!

When embarking on a fishing trip with the guys, it’s always a good idea to wear a bow tie with your best suit jacket. And don’t forget the pocket hankie.

Astronaut Group 2 goes for a swim, 1963. From the bottom: Frank Borman, Ed White, Tom Stafford, Pete Conrad, John Young (I think).

I stand corrected regarding Young’s attire: he’s at least 93% covered only 99% of the time. What’s his deal with the nevernude business, anyway? All the other astronauts run around half-dressed like little kids at bathtime.
