Title: Astronaut David Scott gives salute beside U.S. flag during EVA
Description:
Astronaut David R. Scott, commander, gives a military salute while standing 
beside the deployed U.S. flag during the Apollo 15 lunar surface 
extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Hadley-Apennine landing site. The flag 
was deployed toward the end of EVA-2. The Lunar Module "Falcon" is
partially  visible on the right. Hadley Delta in the background rises
approximately  4,000 meters (about 13,124 feet) above the plain. The base
of the mountain is  approximately 5 kilometers (about 3 statute miles)
away. This photograph was  taken by Astronaut James B. Irwin, Lunar Module
pilot.
