  Description:
  Astronaut Bonnie J. Dunbar, wearing extravehicular mobility unit (EMU), 
  adjusts the communications carrier assembly (CCA) ("Snoopy" cap)
  microphones  before donning EMU helmet.  Dunbar is preparing for an
  underwater simulation  in JSC's Weightless Environment Training Facility
  (WETF) Bldg 29 pool.  When  fully suited, Dunbar will be lowered into the
  pool to rehearse planned and  contingency extravehicular activities (EVAs).
