Apollo astronaut survivalist kit and training - photos

Survival kit for Apollo astronauts.


Here we have Frank Borman, Neil Armstrong, John Young and Deke Slayton during desert survival training in Nevada, sporting a lovely wardrobe made of parachute cloth.


And a group shot. Not exactly sure that this same photographic theme might be chosen if such a snapshot were taken today.


Astronauts eat some food caught in the jungle during survival training in Panama.
