50 years ago… on this date 1976, January 1, US Air Force Colonel Apollo 16 LMP Charles "Charlie" Duke retired from NASA. Selected a NASA astronaut in Group 5 (The Original Nineteen - April 1966), Duke had to wait almost five years before being issued a Speedmaster wrist chronograph. During Apollo 16, Duke stayed 71 hours on the Moon, performing three EVAs becoming the tenth and also youngest Moonwalker. The incident with his NASA-issued Omega Speedmaster 105.012-66 S/N 54, hesalite plexiglass pop-off during EVA-3, is well-described in the official A16 mission report. Promoted USAF Brig General in 1979, Duke became an Omega ambassador in 2017 and fulfills this task with great success to this day. (Photo: NASA portrait S71-51288)
