Dig back through copies of _National Geographic_ from around the time
of the Gemini (6 & 7 ?) rendezvous.  I remember great photos taken from
the capsules of each other.  I also recall there being red and blue on
the otherwise black capsule.

Is it possible that this capsule was not painted exactly as the ones that
flew?  Were 6 & 7 unique because of the rendezvous?
