Description
English: A U.S. Navy frogman, deployed from the hovering Sikorsky SH-3A Sea King from Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 3 (HS-3), swims next to the spacecraft and makes contact with Astronaut L. Gordon Cooper inside, as his fellow team members bring up the floatation gear to be attached to the spacecraft. The main chute floats at top left, and the ejected reserve chute floats at the lower right of the spacecraft in the green dye area.
HS-3 was assigned to Carrier Anti-Submarine Air Group 56 (CVSG-56) aboard the aircraft carrier USS Intrepid (CVS-11) for the recovery of Gemini 3.
