Video only:  Werner von Braun addresses the Firing Room briefly.  (I think I've identified him correctly.)  He has a pair of binoculars slung around his neck, like a lot of the others.

You're welcome, Ben.  I was glad to see some fresh territory here before I dived into Apollo 13.  I've been spending a bit of time listening to the Apollo 11 audio from a few hours before launch, to see what the early preparations were like, and I've found a few interesting items I'll post.
