Title: 55:49:59 Conversation between surgeon and Dr. Berry TV show, accident
Post by: Wehwalt on November 23, 2020, 07:49:26 am

Dr. Charles Berry had gone home before the TV show pre accident. He calls in and gets a description from the surgeon on duty and they discuss whether the crew's features have become distorted, plus gets an initial reaction to the accident.

I admit one thing I find amusing about this conversation is Dr. Berry's musing about how the media "is not covering much of anything" with regards to Apollo 13, a mere six minutes before the incident that turned this into arguably the second most famous Apollo mission in history, and certainly one of the most widely covered shortly thereafter!
