Now that I’ve got my files back, I pulled up a few things to do some fact-checks. One of the first up was the report dealing with the Apollo/Titan IIIK that I mentioned HERE.

Here’s a hint, kids: work from memory as little as possible. The report clearly refers to it as a Titan IIIM, not Titan IIIK. I can find no reference to the “K” designation. I don’t know where that came from. Brain fart at best. Possibly a typo.

This sort of error is embarrassing, but I’d rather own up to screwing up than contribute to the bullcrapification of aerospace history. There’s entirely too damned much of that as it is.
