WMSJ, What pulse on ergometer?—etc., How much blood—why risk a collapsed artery?” An attached routing slip stamp-dated May 24, 1968, is initialed by Deke Slayton, “DK,” who writes below, “Al—this is the proposed medical pre & post flt. protocol for ‘C.’ Whatever we agree on here should be used…Please review w.
