Super rare group photo of NASA Flight Crew Operations Division with Armstrong, Conrad, Shepard, Slayton and others. This is not a Red/Blue numbered photo. This was taken at their team meeting and presented to the team and very few others.Description below from my father:
In 1963 or 64, the Flight Crew Operations Division was called by Director D. Slayton, for a retreat to put forth a plan for the next 5 years on what we are going to do. Our group consisted of three parts; trainer requirements, procedures development, and my area, hardware development. Representatives of each group met for 3 days and the weekend at a hunting resort and game club. We met in the morning at breakfast, then worked on the program in small groups. Took the afternoon off to relax, then after dinner we gave our reports. I will give you who’s in the pic the best I can remember 58 years a go.

You may be able to pick out some of the other names in this group. If you do, I'd love to know who they are to add here.
This photo is from my fathers collection. He worked at NASA from it's
beginning
until his retirement. He has many unique items in his collection that I will be posting soon.
Let me know if you need additional photos.
