Nice find! I can't quite make out the name of the pizza place either, but that'll be Guidance Officer Gary Renick.

(To the best of my knowledge, GUIDO-R is the name of an audio channel rather than a role. The 'assistant' Guidance position was called Yaw, but I don't think there's any way of telling who was on which role by which channel they were on.)

Yeah I was pretty sure the -R was the audio loop, I just wanted to be descriptive. Do you have a list of the personnel in the MOCR somewhere?

You can find a manning list for Mercury through Skylab from page 198 here: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/bbm%3A978-3-319-76684-3%2F1.pdf

However it has to be taken with a truly massive pinch of salt as shift patterns were really not always regular - and indeed on these tapes you can often hear the controllers themselves asking who's on shift when. So it takes a lot of listening and a lot of being able to recognize voices! I've started recording some of this for my own reference but it's too big a task for one person.

Well, a somewhat inaccurate source is better than nothing. Thanks
