Well some of the IV crew anyway-Each crew
consisted of about 14 and a lot of informal members who
were incredibly helpful in making sure we had
an extra hand when we needed it most-
Anchor says that when the word got out
that they were building Slo-mo IV there were
at least 40 applicants for every position

Some of the V crew


Left to right.front row -George Mckernan-Wes Kiesling-Unknown-
Don Ibsen -Elmer Linenschmidt-Martin Headman -
Back Row Left to right: Unknown-Unknown-Stanley Sayres-R.Stanley Dollar-Unknown-Bain Macintosh.
Some of the unknowns were Western Gear people who Anchor was
unable to identify. Hey if you know who they are let me know.
I will try to do a profile on each member as I gather the info.
It may take awhile.
