APOLLO 12 Official Launch Emblem 2-1/2" Full Embroidered Patch - FREE SHIPPING

Description

Crew:  Charles Conrad Jr., Commander; Alan L. Bean, Lunar Module Pilot; Richard F. Gordon Jr., Command Module Pilot
The clipper ship signifies that the crew is all Navy and symbolically related the era of the clipper ship to the era of space flight.  As the clipper ship brought foreign shores closer to the United States and marked the increased utilization of the seas by this nation, spacecraft have opened the way to the other planets and Apollo 12 marks the increased utilization of space-based on knowledge gained in earlier missions. The portion of the moon shown is representative of the Ocean of Storms area in which Apollo 12 will land.
T
here were four stars in the patch of Apollo 12, one for each of the crewmen and one for C.C. Williams who would have been the lunar module pilot on this flight had he lived. Al Bean had replaced C.C. as Lunar Module Pilot, and it had been his idea to put the extra star there.
