Apollo 16 Crew Activity Planning Guide. A "NASA Internal Use Only" crew training schedule document consisting of a 5-week calendar grid layout and brief activities listed for each day of the work week. Many grids come with a one- or two-page detailed typescript listing the training subject and actual scheduled times for a one-week period. The prime crew of Young, Mattingly, and Duke are listed plus the back-up crew of Haise, Roosa, and Mitchell when needed. The training period spans from July 12, 1970 until the launch date of April 16, 1972. 8.5x11 inches and 125+ pages, in a three ring notebook with occasionally manuscript corrections and updates on calendar grids. NASA/MSC, 1970-72
Perhaps no other single document can chronicle the extraordinary amount of time the astronauts and ground support teams spent to accomplish a lunar landing mission. Although not listed, the crew spent most weekends reviewing flight documents or traveling to their next assignment. Those were some of the "unwritten rules" associated with crew assignments. Inscribed and signed by Apollo 16 LMP Charles Duke on the first page of the calendar with: "The start of two years of training, Charles M. Duke, Jr., Apollo 16" and on the final calendar page with: "Wow!! Finally launch day, Charles M. Duke, Jr., Apollo 16."
