After being awakened by "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever," Young awakened his companions:

Young (whistling): "Reveille! Reveille! Up all hands, heave out, trice up, clean, sweep down, fore and aft."

Capcom: Sounds like we're ready for a Navy drill on the flight deck.

Spacecraft: It's good music.

Capcom: How'd it come through this time, John?

Spacecraft: It's loud and clear. It's beautiful. Sounds like we've got stereo.

Spacecraft: The world doesn't look very much littler than it did yesterday.

Capcom: I bet you the moon looks a little bigger, though.

After Cernan and Stafford, in the Lunar Module, separated from the Command Module, leaving John Young alone in orbit:

Young: "You will never know how big this thing gets when there ain't nobody in here but one guy."

Cernan: "You will never know how small it looks when you are as far as we are."
