Does anyone know the name....
...of the airman giving "Lt." Bush instruction in this photo? Has he ever been identified?

5. He has a gold braid on his Overseas cap, that would
indicate he is an officer, not enlisted.

Probably telling bush where to pee and poop when he pulls a G-turn...:D

6. I use the term "airman" not as a rank....
...but in the civilian sense of the word (from Part 1, 14 CFR). Yes, I know he's a Captain (you can see the bars on his garrison cap).

7. Understood...It usually is the Crew Chief that "tucks in" the pilot
...:)

8. Yes...
...but in this case sorta-kinda pilot "Lt." Bush may need some special help. (Or the EMs hated his guts so much that they refused to be around when "Lt." Bush was scheduled to launch).
