James McDivitt will head the crew for the first manned test of the giant Saturn V rocket, set for late 1968. Joining him will be David Scott and Russel Schweickart. Frank Borman, command pilot, and Michael Collins and William Anders are assigned to second Saturn V launch, expected by early 1969. All three flights will be Earth-orbital tests of the equipment techniques to be used in later trips to the Moon.
