Footage of Scott Carpenter and John Glenn Skin Diving

Since we recently moved to the Columbus, Ohio area, we recently began looking through the material at the Ohio State University Archives - where much of John Glenn's personal collection of material has been sent. In addition to some very interesting items, there is a decent amount of audio-visual material in the collection.

While there is still much at which to look, one of our favorite items so far, of which we are securing a transfer for a future product, is a reel of Scott Carpenter and John Glenn skin diving off Grand Turk the day after Glenn's flight. Interesting stuff. I'll try and post a couple of stills once we have the item in house.

Some fabulous photos are also contained in the collection. If you would like to look through the listing in the archives, you can find the collection at the OSU archives.
