Yeah, my only assignment using a Hasselblad. But getting to use the
special 60mm Biogon with double the resolving power of the 80mm Planar
was cool.

That would have been hard. I don't think there were even working
prototypes of the M-1 yet. 35mm would have been a Nikon F. Oly didn't
hit the space circuit 'til the Space Shuttle era, with the OM-4.

I've always been poor on dates. Pretty sure it was July, though, on my
reserves summer cruise. We had to pretend that it was just out into the
Pacific, of course.
