Bob Buckman (Cowboy Buck) is far right in photo. Standing next to him is Jeff Parker, and sitting next to Jeff is Dwight D. McGrath.
The guy crouching down next to McGrath was the illuminator operator. Very back left of the photo, almost out of camera range, is Tom Hoza. The gentleman, far left, with his chin in his hand is Wally Love.
