  Most of these men are Mercury astronauts. Not sure about the leftmost fellow, but the others are, from left, John Glenn (usually wore a bowtie), Wally Schirra (with the cigarette), Gus Grissom, Alan Shepard and Gordon Cooper.

  The aircraft the Mercury Seven are standing in front of (Convair F-106B Delta Dart, AF 59-0158) escaped being blown out of the sky as a target drone and was recently restored. It now sits on display in Century Circle at Edwards Air Force Base. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x70VvAeQ5X0 www.edwards.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123066163 Links to the original photo: grin.hq.nasa.gov/ABSTRACTS/GPN-2000-001286.html grin.hq.nasa.gov/IMAGES/MEDIUM/GPN-2000-001286.jpg
