Neil Armstrong, Frank Borman, Charles Conrad, Jim McDivitt, Jim Lovell, Elliott See, Tom Stafford, Ed White and John Young.

Note: A second group of nine astronauts was selected by NASA in September 1962.

All of the others also flew on Apollo, except for Ed White, who died in the Apollo 1 launchpad fire.  Three of this group, McDivitt, Borman and Armstrong, made single flights in both Gemini and Apollo.  Four others, Young, Lovell, Stafford and Conrad, each made two flights in Gemini and at least one flight in Apollo.  Young and Lovell both made two Apollo flights.  Conrad and Stafford also made second flights in Apollo spacecraft, Conrad on Skylab 2 and Stafford in Apollo-Soyuz.  Six of this group, Borman, Lovell, Stafford, Young, Armstrong and Conrad, made flights to the Moon.  Lovell and Young went to the Moon twice.  Armstrong, Conrad, and Young walked on the Moon.  McDivitt was later Apollo Program Director and became the first general officer and would have been either the prime LM Pilot or backup commander for Apollo 14, but left NASA due to a conflict between Alan Shepard and Deke Slayton.  John Young also later flew on the Space Shuttle (STS-1 and STS-9) and would retire from NASA in 2004.  He was both the first and last of his group to go into space.
